Hi
Since recently I’m using PMS / Plexamp for my music.
I started with a bunch of Artists / Albums, just to find my way.
Every artist was shown with a cover from one of his albums.
Now, every artist I add to plex is shown with a picture of the artist.
I show with a screenshot.
‘Ackboo’ is now a portrait and all the other artists are one of their covers.
During my learning process in PMS I tried several options in agents.
Honestly I get confused there. I suppose I changed something that I shouldn’t have to.
What options are need to have it back like before.
thanks in advance.

This is defintily not as it was designed.
If you enter the “Artists” view mode of your library, you are supposed to see pictures of the artist as such, and not a cover photo of one of their albums.
Therefore, the icon for Ackboo in your screenshot is “correct”, while the others are not. (Cover art may appear as a standin, if photos of the artist are not available)
If you have a lot of music which is under-represented on last.fm or allmusic.com, you should supply your own cover art and artist photos.
Adhere to the folder structure for music, it will help to avoid problems https://support.plex.tv/articles/200265296-adding-music-media-from-folders/

Thanks for your reply, I found where my mistake is.
While I am test plex / plexamp, I created 3 music folders, each with a bunch of music.
‘Ackboo’ had a correct folderstructure. All the rest didn’t.
