chronflow - can you get it to read embedded art?

I've got album art embedded into all of my files (via mp3tag) but chronflow only selectively reads about 6% of my library's art. I was wondering, does chronflow specifically read one tag type (in other words, maybe the art is tagging to id3v1 and chronflow reads id3v2 or something of that nature), or is this an issue with chronflow not reading embedded art?

Regardless of the situation, I'd like to know if there's a way to set chronflow to read the embedded art.

On a side note, I was wondering if there would be a way to get the classic chronflow view (that which is the same as iTunes's cover flow - all artwork displayed horizontally) to display vertically so that I could run it up and down on the side.

Edit: actually, I just stumbled upon a thread after about 20 minutes of searching which noted chronflow can not read embedded art. I don't know if this is outdated or not, but if not, are there any plugins which produce cover flow with embedded art?

There is no way to set chronflow up for this.

There is just one other coverflow component, bubble coverflow. And this doesnt work under v1.1. What you can do is installing the lastfm album/artist biography panel, that can be configured to automatically download your album art to the folder of a playing album.

Btw, how did you get so much album arts into the mp3s?
