<p>These functions give you access to the media art that has been extracted
and saved in the user's XDG_CACHE_HOME directory.</p>
<p>To find the media art for a given media file, use the function
<a class="link" href="libmediaart-Caching-and-Management.html#media-art-get-file" title="media_art_get_file ()"><code class="function">media_art_get_file()</code></a> (you can also use <a class="link" href="libmediaart-Caching-and-Management.html#media-art-get-path" title="media_art_get_path ()"><code class="function">media_art_get_path()</code></a>, which does the
same thing but for path strings instead of <span class="type">GFile</span> objects).</p>
<p>If media art for the file is not found in the cache, these functions will
return <code class="literal">NULL</code>. You may find some embedded media art upon loading the file,
and you can use <a class="link" href="libmediaart-Extraction.html#media-art-process" title="media_art_process ()"><code class="function">media_art_process()</code></a> to convert it to the correct format and
save it in the cache for next time. The <a class="link" href="libmediaart-Extraction.html#media-art-process" title="media_art_process ()"><code class="function">media_art_process()</code></a> function also
supports searching for external media art images using a basic heuristic.</p>
