Same issue here. I suspect that it may use the cover from the M4B rather than the one added to Audiobookshelf.
Here is what it looks like on my end (look at the writings at the top of the image):

Fixed in v0.9.78-beta.

This was indeed fixed in v0.9.78-beta, but it seems to be back in v0.10.0-beta. Can you please reopen this bug?

Looks fine on iOS (most recent TestFlight):

Well it doesn’t look good on this book. Maybe it’s a online vs offline book listening thing?
I’m on 0.10.0-beta (latest iOS TestFlight), I’m not sure which version my previous was taken on, but it was up-to-date at the time I tested.
Edit: interestingly the image quality is good if I look at it from the book overview and click on the book image. But if I switch to the player it’s bad again.
