I have tried everything to get AA to work (including searching this forum).
« on: June 09, 2008, 10:16:51 PM »
I have read many old posts with my problem and have tried about every fix I could find.

However, I still cannot get my 60GB video iPod to display album art.  I downloaded the cirrect version of rockbox and then updated it to the daily build.

I have saved the album art as a 100x100 .bmp (converted using GIMP) in all of these formats/places:

./ filename .bmp - same filename as currently playing music file
./ albumtitle .bmp - name of the album, found in metadata of the music file
./cover.bmp
/.rockbox/albumart/ artist-albumtitle .bmp

I am trying to use either the cool blue theme or irock v2 theme downloaded from
http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/WpsIpod5g#iRock_v2
The themes work, but without the album art.
I have tried editing the .wps file to have this as the last lines:

%Cl|50|70|c100|b100|


%C

I am at a loss as to what to do next.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

"%Cl|50|70|c100|b100|" needs a "c" instead of a "b" in the last parameter, as far as I know.  You should paste the contents of the .wps file in a code block so people can look at it to see what might be wrong.

Another thing is, if they're the last two lines of the file, the file may be just a little too long and those lines aren't getting read.

Before we get into trying to fix some random .wps - how about you tell us if you have  managed to get album art working with the default rockbox theme (cabbiev2) ?

It works with the cabbiev2!!!  How can I increase the font size on the menu browser screens for this theme?

I guess I will look into that .wps file for this theme and see what it says and try to copy it to the others.

Any reason why it should work with this theme and not any of the others I have downloaded?  The others are:

Cool Blue
Escape Pod AA
iCatcher
iRocker
Nudel Green 5G AA
Rockboxed
Unicatcher

All downloaded from links on the Rockbox website.

Here is the cool blue wps file.

Would anyone recommend downloading the bootloader/builds/themes


edit by mcuelenaere: moved the WPS to pastebin in order to reduce width

I would imagine that the reason it doesn't work with those themes is down to one of the following reasons :

1) The theme doesn't support Album Art at all
or
2) The theme is long out of date, and needs updating to the latest WPS syntax by the author or some other individual.

The font size on the menu browser screens use the same font as the WPS, you cant change them separately.
