> Symfonium allows you to set a local thumbnail to albums, genres, artists, songs and playlists. (The thumbnail is not uploaded to your provider!) When in the detail page of one of those media type, press the 3 dots menu button. Select Change local thumbnail Then select what image you want to use. Generate from songs: Will generate an image based on the related songs. When used the first time it will use distinct images from the most present songs. If you select again this…

?

Else you maybe just want to option prefer song thumbnail on your provider settings.  
Hard to know with so much details.

I have followed these steps before posting this question but it didn’t work for me. When I select “Generate from songs” option, it didn’t do anything even after multiple attempts.

You are very not clear about what you want to do so it’s hard to tell…

Generate from songs takes the thumbnail from these songs of the albums to generate a cover. If the songs have no thumbs then it does nothing obviously.
