Album Art does NOT display properly

ZincAlloy:
Here's some metadata for the Bad Company cover from the other tread. Might be useful:

Yes, most of my MP3 purchases are from Amazon, a few from Google Play, but only two of the Amazon albums have exhibited this problem: the Mozart and the Tron movie soundtrack, which also incidentally has a small logo surrounded by black.

I will use Mp3tag to first copy the album art to a file, then clear the album art from the album and reapply it to all tracks, see how it goes.

ZincAlloy:
Cool. Please post the extracted album art file here. Might be interesting..
I suspect this one has a different issue than the other greyish covers as this one still has colors while the others have different shades of grey only.

saratoga:
The bad image is saved as YCbCr4:4:4, whereas most normal JPEGs are subsampled at YCbCr4:2:0 or something similar.  My guess is the unusual color format causes the problem, and when the image is resaved its converted into a more normal color space which works around the problem. 

ZincAlloy:
That's not it. The color format doesn't change when I resave.
