Album art problem
« on: December 27, 2007, 06:02:58 AM »
I have album art on my mp3 files but they dont show up in rockbox. I then read throught the rockbox wiki and found out that it doesn't support "embedded album art". Can anyone tell me what the other way to put album art on a file so that it will show up in rockbox.
Thanks

I believe (the last I looked) it's listed at the album art wiki page as well.

I have had another look at the wiki and the manual and have found no instructions on installing the album art. Can someone please tell me how to do it?

One option:

Put a bitmap image (which is smaller than your player's screen in pixels) of the album art in the folder which contains the music and name it cover.bmp.  Check out the "How to use" paragraph of the AlbumArt wiki page for more choices.

The AlbumArt wiki page covers pretty much everything.  Did you read that?
