Music Assistant - Fetch Album Art from LastFM

I’m trying to move over to MA from the now unsupported Linkplay (HACS) integration. One of the things that I miss (because I listen to radio) is the ability to get the artwork from LastFM.

Would it be possible to add this in? All the code exists in the current Linkplay (HACS) integration. If we could get that working then I could switch the featureless core Linkplay integration and use MA to provide the missing features.

Hello Neil_Brownlee,

Music Assistant is an Add-on, not part of HA code at all.

Please re-read the Feature Request Guidelines 📔.

Is there any particular reason you didn’t ask here in Music assistant?
The people that are watching that thread are all either interested. users of, or authors of Music Assistant.
They are likely your best resource. Also there is a Discord: Music Assistant and a Github Repo for it.

I posted it here because MA is core. When I went to github it sent me here …

When did Music assistant stop being an add-on?
Guess I missed that…

I did just find it in the integration list as well…

There are 2 parts, an addon, which runs the music assistant backend, and an integration to control it via HA.

I think this is a backend issue, not an integration issue.
