Cover art stored in cache not updated correctly
Summary
When I open any file that includes cover art, VLC stores a copy of this art in cache (%APPDATA%\vlc\art
in Windows). When I change the cover, it is updated in file BUT NOT in cache.
As an effect:
- every other MP3 player shows current cover art (always read from file upon opening it)
- while the same file opened in VLC always shows some old / outdated / cached art
Closely related, but not duplicate of: #25934.
Steps to reproduce
- Open any file having cover art embed in-file. See it in main windows
- Go to metadata and upload new cover. Click on "Save Metadata" (once it appears -- #14928)
- Close file and re-open it.
Expected behavior
VLC shows actual cover / read from file.
Actual behavior
VLC shows outdated / cached cover.
