Album Art in 3.7
« on: November 16, 2010, 11:33:34 PM »
Since upgrading to v3.7, I've added 7 albums to database including jpgs for album art.  I used same format as with previous versions (album name.jpg) and included in artist/album folder.  However album art is not displayed in WPS or in Pictureflow.  I use iPodWidget Theme.  My player is iPod gen 5.5 (80 gig).  Any suggestions on correcting this issue?

Album art hasn't changed in ages as far as I know, so its probably an issue with your themes.  Are they really old?  If so they may need to be updated.

Themes should be most recent versions since I reloaded them via Utility when I installed v3.7.  I tried other themes and album art does not appear for recent additions to database.

Do the JPGs work when you try to watch them in the JPG viewer (just click on the files)?

No album art in cabbie v2, but I can see the art if I click on jpg file in the file.

Hmmm.  Are you sure that the name in the album tag and the file name match exactly?  You can check the former either in the wps, or in the show track info option on the wps context menu.

I checked file names for jpgs and they match artist and album names.  They seem to be correct to me.

What if you please it as "cover.jpg" in the same directory as the song.

Thanks Left4Cake.  I tried your suggestion and it worked.  I renamed all files with missing art cover.jpg in each separate folder and it worked.
