<p style="margin:0px;text-indent:0px">The best solution would be to 'touch' all those files. Alternatively, if you've only modified a few files you can manually request mythmusic to recheck for album art track by track. Press E on a selected track to bring up the Metadata Editor, select the Album Artwork button, then press MENU, select Rescan for Images.</p>

I think that's the only forced use of "E" anywhere in the frontend (where there's no alternate path to get there), so I don't have it mapped to anything. The menu ought to let you get there, too, but bafflingly in MythMusic it seems to be only a "global" menu, not a contextual (and global) menu like it is everywhere else.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>

I have flac files, not exactly sure which tag format though, but both Picard and MP3Tag had no problems with them.<br>
