I’m running Navidrome in a VPN (Tailscale) setup, and track info shows correctly in Discord, but album artwork always falls back to the Navidrome icon.

From what I understood after trying to use Navicord (what this plugin is inspired by), Discord requires a public facing path for an image to be displayed in RPC, so your setup won't ever give it a valid image path.

I got around this on the original by making a version of Navicord that pulled from LastFM's "now playing" to get the image, which I presume could be baked into this plugin easier because Navidrome has native support for both LastFM and ListenBrainz scrobbling.

I'm thinking about implementing a fallback using ImgBB image hosting. But for that, I need to provide a means for the plugin to get the actual image (not URL) from Navidrome. Will try to implement it this week, if I have time.

I think adding a fallback to fetch the cover image for the currently playing song is a good idea. I used this approach in my fork of Navicord, but I went with Uugu as the image host.
