AlbumArt Rendering Changed Recently?

(1/7) > >>

NorTheBear:
Hi, I upgraded from 3.3 to 3.4 recently and found that my custom WPS does not work anymore.

Basically, my custom WPS makes use of several viewports in order to frame the AlbumArt (rounded corners) and to print the song title across the AlbumArt (thus achieving bigger AA). See screenshots attached: left side = works as intended, right side = broken.

It seems to me that at some point between the two releases, AlbumArt is refreshed frequently while before it was only rendered once per song.

I couldn't find a way to rescue my theme as no matter where I place the %C tag within the WPS it will always overlay any other parts of the layout.

Any ideas?

Thanks, Norbert.

JdGordon:
yes, recent changes stopped that trick from working... hopefully it will be fixed to draw the AA much less frequently.. but dunno when

Just upgraded from 3.3 to 3.4 and now the MaximumArt WPS is not displaying the art.

It IS displaying the noart.bmp though

Player is a Sansa C200 v1

Arwork is in jpg format and was all working fine in 3.3

The Theme page for MaximumArt C200 does say that it works OK with 3.4 - but seeingly not on my player!

Any thoughts anyone?


EDIT - have upgraded to the latest build and MaximumArt still doesn't work

Now downgraded back to 3.3 and guess what? Normal service is resumed..album art displays just fine. Must be a 3.4+ issue

Yes your right but I have no idea why
Please try this Severely modified wps file, just overwrite it should be fine.
