Do not use camera images of album art
StephenGregory opened this issue · comments
For example, when generating a wallpaper for Wasting Light by The Foo Fighters, it grabbed an image someone took of the album with their camera (include their oh so glorious living room). Also, used a Bluray cover for Sonic Highways by Foo Fighters.
This should be considered an invalid choice to use for a wallpaper.

While I am seeing this for Discogs, this should be generic enough, if possible, to apply to potential newer sources.
For Discogs, I can add "format: album" to the request to filter out DVDs and BluRays. In the response, I have look at the other format tags and check for MP3, CD, and vinyl formats in the response, as there are some other format values that are tagged as album but don't give actual covers (e.g. CDr).
Slightly related, but I have noticed that Discogs seems to have cover_image within search results now.
I suspect I can take that now instead of searching for each release individually.
