Hi,
Now with the wonderful improvements and functionality from version 5, would it be possible to create a plugin/effect, that shows the album cover as a logo.
As filename of cover album is same as song filename it must be possible to link when user select as song.
An option would also be nice that users can define the time the album cover has to be displayed at start of the song.
Thanks
Johan

That's a cool idea! As long as you can get a file name from vdj, I guess it wouldn't be too difficult.

For that, there is already a query created for the function GetInfo(). It gives a direct to the picture in memory ;-)
So it will be fast to make a plugin

Where can you download it ?

Its under downloads, video effects.
You can simply "Activate" the plugin under effects, video effects, then select showcover and press activate. This will bring the cover for the playing song up on the club TV's. If you have no covers downloaded this pluging will simply show nothing!
The extra controls allow you to move the logo to where you want it, and set the size.
Two thumbs Up DJ Cel, thanks heaps!

is it planned, that the album cover in the mp3 can be showed with this plug or only a jpg in the folder!?

I think it's just the one in the folder, but DJ Cell will know more, if all else fails give it a try with a file that only has the image in the MP3. I feel it would only be used from the folder as video files would not be able to host the image.

Yes it's planned for V2.0 but I first wanted to have a plugin compatible with old versions of VirtualDJ too and not only for v5.x
The current plugin is independent from the version of VirtualDJ you have because it reads the jpeg, linked to the current song, in the folder. I'm going to add new options soon.

One suggestion if I may, to allow the plugin to use a selected image (Ie the dj's logo) when no cover is present, perhaps with a mask opton that just affects the logo. As CD covers may look bad with a colour masked out.
Just an idea. =)

The Showcover plugin is excellent !!!
Only question: How can I get more covers ?
My config is: Read ID tags, Title Artist, ID3 comment all ENABLED.
Download Exact cover and automatically to database.
Still I have 85 % without a cover.
I have cable connection to the internet and waited for a day but no more covers.

You may need to select say 50 files at a time, the rightclick and click "Download cover"
Failing this, "Exact Match" will only download the cover if the title and artist exactly maches what is found on the net, you may need to do what I do, and download them one by one, by right clicking the fille in VDJ, selecting file info, then clicking "Cover" this will give you various covers that are a close match, and you can then select the best match for you.
I do this in blocks of 30 or so per day, as it isn't a nice job. 30 today, 20 tomorrow ect.
