Album Art does NOT display properly

Perfect! Thanks a lot!

They don't look as messed up as the other ones, indeed. Just way too bright.

You're welcome

So the problem with these images, is it basically what's been mentioned here?

No idea what the problem is, but now we can check for it when we have an idea what it could be. At least I hope so.

I am wondering if Rockbox uses album art if it is in the folder with the relevant MP3s as a JPEG called "folder.jpg" - or does it prioritise embedded album art first? I ask this as I don't relish the thought of modifying 99 large MP3 files in one go totalling over 1Gb in size if I can avoid it.

The order Rockbox uses when looking for a picture is as follows (a list in braces means that those file extensions are tried in that order):

1. embedded (JPEG images in ID3v2 or MP4 tags only)
2. ./filename.{jpeg,jpg,bmp}
3. ./albumtitle.{jpeg,jpg,bmp}
4. ./cover.{jpeg,jpg,bmp}
5. ./folder.jpg
6. /.rockbox/albumart/albumartist-albumtitle.{jpeg,jpg,bmp}
7. ../albumtitle.{jpeg,jpg,bmp}
8. ../cover.{jpeg,jpg,bmp}

Many tag editors allow editing all files at once. Should be no big deal.

It's not really a hassle, but I'm treating modified MP3s as "patches" and keeping them separate from the originals, but that damn Mozart album is by far the single biggest one I've got, and 1Gb is a lot of storage space real estate
