--- Quote from: kewlgreen on December 16, 2007, 01:31:49 AM ---Hi, I have just installed the most recent build of Rockbox(with pictureflow). After pictureflow finishes loading, it tells me that "no album art found." Is there a specific location that i have to put my album art?
I have tried putting the art in the -->/Ipod_Control/Music/ ..... folder, with the name "cover 100x100.bmp."
Anyhelp will be greatly appreciated. :D

You can find it in the Album Art Wiki: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/AlbumArt#Where_to_put_the_pictures
--- Quote ---The pictures can be stored in the same directory (.) as the track or in the parent directory (..).

I think the problem might be the name: "cover 100x100.bmp" should be "cover.100x100.bmp", so you've missed a dot.
This could be the problem, but I'm not sure. ???
Chronon:
kewlgreen: It sounds like you've got your music in Apple's obfuscated file structure. If that's the case then the folder that a set of songs is in does not correspond to a single album. It's a random conglomeration of songs. For album art to work properly you will have to name them album_name.bmp* otherwise the database has no idea which album of the many in a single directory your cover.bmp corresponds to.
* album_name = the name of the album as stored in the metadata tags. Note that some album names cannot be used as filenames due to special characters (e.g. :, /, \, !, etc.).

when i set it as *cover.100x100.bmp* it set it to all of the flow artwork.....which i figured it would.
how exactly would i name the file with *album_name.bmb* if let's say the album was Billy Talent II . . . .????
sammienator:
You should give the album picture exactly the same name as the album: "Billy Talent II.bmp" (If the album is "Billy Talent II")
