Ultimate Album Art Fix

(1/2) > >>

Reece:
I'll just keep it short. I've, through trial and error, found the solution to that annoying "My album art wont show" problem.

Go into the album folder where alll your songs are, there should be a picture file there. The picture file has to be in JPEG format and you have to rename it as "cover" This will make it recognizable to the device.
If there is no file, just add one yourself, save it as JPEG and call it "cover."
I like to use paint.net to open the files and save them again as cover.JPEG.
You don't even have to capitalize "cover"
This works like a charm, and looks great in coverflow. So, hurray! Cover art for everyone!

(I bet someone else already figured this out, but, oh well.)

__builtin:
Is this behavior documented in the manual? If not, then it really should be!

[Saint]:
I mean this in the nicest possible way, but I really have absolutely zero time for this.

This is just absolutely not true.

Please familiarize yourself with the manual, and the many, many, various options for naming and location schemes that are valid. I suspect what you "discovered" here, which is also documented, is that we do not support progressive jpeg album art.

I did stat that "someone probably already found this."
I'm just posting this as an easy to fallow fix that might help someone out.
I didn't find this in the manual, I just stumbled upon this in my attempt to fix the problem, besides, I don't have time, or the desire, to "familiarize" myself with the manual. I found a solution, so I'm posting it so that someone can easily find it as opposed to endlessly searching through a manual.
