How to Get Album Cover on Chrome Music
Are you a music enthusiast who loves to explore new albums and artists on Chrome Music? One of the most visually appealing aspects of Chrome Music is the album cover display. However, by default, Chrome Music may not always show the album covers for your favorite tracks. In this article, we will guide you through the steps to get album covers on Chrome Music and enhance your listening experience.
Step 1: Check for the Album Cover
The first step is to ensure that the album cover is available for the track you are listening to. Sometimes, the cover may not be available due to copyright restrictions or other reasons. To check for the album cover, simply hover over the track name in the Chrome Music interface. If a cover appears, it means that the album cover is available for that particular track.
Step 2: Enable Web Developer Tools
To get album covers on Chrome Music, you will need to enable the Web Developer Tools. Here’s how you can do it:
1. Right-click on the Chrome Music page and select “Inspect” or press “Ctrl + Shift + I” (Cmd + Option + I on Mac).
2. In the Developer Tools window that appears, click on the “Toggle device toolbar” button (the one that looks like a smartphone or tablet) to expand the device toolbar.
3. Click on the “Toggle responsive design mode” button (the one that looks like a smartphone or tablet with a grid) to enable the responsive design mode.
4. Click on the “Toggle device toolbar” button again to close the device toolbar.
Step 3: Adjust the Media Query
Now that you have enabled the responsive design mode, you can adjust the media query to force Chrome Music to display album covers. Here’s how:
1. In the Developer Tools window, click on the “CSS” tab.
2. In the search bar at the top of the CSS tab, type “max-width” and press Enter.
3. Find the media query that applies to the Chrome Music page. It should look something like this: `@media screen and (max-width: 600px)`.
4. In the CSS rule for this media query, add the following property: `background-image: url(‘path/to/album/cover.jpg’);`. Replace ‘path/to/album/cover.jpg’ with the actual path to the album cover image you want to display.
Step 4: Save and Refresh
After adjusting the media query, save the changes and refresh the Chrome Music page. The album cover should now be displayed for the track you were listening to. If it still doesn’t appear, try adjusting the media query’s `max-width` value or try a different album cover image.
Conclusion
By following these steps, you can easily get album covers on Chrome Music and enjoy a more visually appealing listening experience. While this method may not work for all tracks, it’s a great way to enhance your music exploration on Chrome Music. Happy listening!
