Except Dear Reader it very much depends on WHERE your coverart came from.

After pulling out my hair this sumarizes what I have uncovered:

The EXIF data needs to have a 'Title' (field filled)
An image may be used ONCE. To use the same image again make a new copy.
The existing meta data may stop the image, needing Details -> Reset

Jonathan on my fixes/31 you may 'press the image' or check [ok] both work.
Roland see the images

then presss [ok]

but using an unused image with correct meta (exif) data
