Eventhough I have the folder.jpg file in the same directory and the %_covers% tag has the same image burnt to the flac files, the album art in Roon shows “AUDIO CD COVERS_000081”.
This is the case for any folder which has scans with naming following the patter “AUDIO CD COVERS *”.
Is this content from local files, TIDAL, or Qobuz?

Description of the issue
Anotther frustrating bug for the day.
I add an album to Roon, by copying it to the Storage folder which Roon is watching for updates.
As Roon takes a lot of time to show up the album I do a “Force Rescan”.
Evethough I do this for every album I add when navigate to the album, and click through the images, not all images located in the same folder as the flac files show up. I have to again click the 3 dots, Edit, and do a “Rescan album” for the images to show up.
Eventhough I do this at some point in time the issue re-occurs.
I did an entire re-scan of the library yesterday to fix the issue with junk metadata showing up (Old Metadata still showing up in roon), this still didnt fix the issue.
Finding issues one by one Im losing my faith in this s/w
Roon’s album artwork algorithms tend to pick the highest resolution image in an album’s directory as the image to show…I recommend giving this thread a read:
The technical support team is investigating related issues with this same database that involve the underlying local files and metadata you’ve described.
For brevity and to expedite investigation, I’m going to merge this report with your other report concerning local artwork ingestion in Roon. We’ve requested relevant files and diagnostics and will respond there.
The heavy-handed workaround would be to refresh the database entirely, but as mentioned, this will require re-import/re-scan and recreation of your Roon custom settings. It will, however, completely delete the ingested library objects and re-assciate them with the current metadata and file structure.
We can’t be sure this will resolve the issue until we’ve reproduced with QA using the local files you’ve supplied. However, here’s the process:
