I noticed that for some time (a month or so) whenever I add a new artist and upload artist.jpg in the artist folder, I still get the default star image.

I'm running Navidrome on docker, I'm on version 0.61.2 (aa84e645) and I have set ArtistArtPriority = "artist.*". My artist.jpg images don't exceed 800px and are not large files, if that would matter.

Setting the log level to debug didn't show me anything relevant, when going to an artist page on Navidrome web client or the Android client I'm using.

Any ideas for how to find a solution to this?

I have run into this, more or less because the default metadata source was last.FM for a while and someone completely highjacked one of the artist bio pages with an ai garbage artist of the same name, and there was no way in last.FM to fix it. I believe navidrome ended up using Deezer as a default now.

Anyhow, long story long, I had to use a local photo for the artist page and I ran into something similar. Leg me go back to see what I did there.
