Hey

Before some moderator comes along and qoutes straight outta the rockbox website, I have read the Album Art section.

I do not understand it well

If i just want a album cover for all songs inside a folder, how would I do that?

I know that i need to convert it, I just need to know what to put the filename as etc.


Thanks

ColdSphinx:
You need a costombuild to use albumart. So this isn't the right place to ask.

What exactly is it that is giving you trouble?  The AlbumArt wiki page pretty much describes exactly what you need to do.

You will need to aquire a build of rockbox with album art patch.
Get one of Evils build or senbs from the  unsupported builds forum.
Get a WPS with album art support.
Get that build and the WPS working on your iPod.
Get the chosen builds requirements for the cover art pixel size.
You need to have your music in file tree structure stored on your iPod.
This means drag and drop your sorted music to the ipod.
Within each album folder you should have the cover art converted to a .bmp type file called cover.bmp  
The size of this file should be 85 X 85; atleast that is the size supported by my build some are 100 X 100.

If you do all of this correctly, when you select a song to play the now playing screen will show the cover.bmp picture.

How would you go about organizing the music in the iPod control folder into a tree structure?  Do you have to use something other than iTunes to put your music on there?  I currently still do that, while running Rockbox, but when I opened my iPod control folder, everything's in folders like F1 to F40 with random music files stuck in there.  Everything's a complete mess...could I even do album art at this point, or am I screwed?

Thanks
