    I just got Lynx installed on one of my media servers. So far, so good, but I got a question. All of my movie files have covers associated with them through iTunes that show up when browsing, but only half of them show up. Is there a way to make them all show?

    Edit - Anyone know how to install music-applet?

    Thanks for any help.

    Assuming music-applet is in the repositories and I think it is you can install it using the installer thingy at the bottom of the left hand menu.

    Or 'sudo apt-get install music-applet' in a terminal.

    EDIT: By thingy I mean Ubuntu Software Centre. Then search for music-applet, it's called GNOME panel to control music players.

    I believe he is referring to Ubuntu 10.04.

    It's in the software center if anyone is interested.
