This enhancement allows the thumbnail generator to create cover thumbs for images in the parent folders of the Album folder, but it has no way of excluding the Album folder itself which is what is causing @cirrower's issue.
The enhancement is very nice since it enables things like Artist covers, CD Box set covers, etc but assumes that if covers are embedded there would be no image files in the Album dir but of course this is not a reasonable assumption.
The code in question is in file /var/www/util/list-songfiles.sh and it looks like a patch that removes the enhancement is needed ASAP. I'll post one later today or tomorrow.
A permanent fix will take some investigation.
Hmm, looks like this one can render "The Slip" with the album cover in the tag view, and the single embedded art of the songs straight away, uh? :-D
I have a better fix for this, though... works more or less on the same principle: Acts like "embedded" is chosen as priority, but if an image is found in the folder, it will be used as album-art. Current track art is the embedded one, if present, otherwise the image in the folder. I named it "Hybrid" in the prefs.
