If you want to include your own album art (up to 150 albums!), you can easily do so by creating a Discord developer app.
- Go to Discord's developer application page
- Create a new app. Call it something like MusicBee.
- Copy the client ID (located in the app details section at the top of the page)
- Paste it into line 47 of the main file
- On the webpage of your new developer app, click Enable Rich Presence at the bottom of the page.
- Make sure to include the playing/paused icons. They are available for download here.
- You should be good to go. Keep the following in mind when uploading album images:
- Characters like spaces turn into underscores. (found on this line. You can add options for other characters, too) For example, if you are listening to Since I Left You by The Avalanches, the uploaded album name would have to be named "since_i_left_you".
