Just had a quick check and from what I can tell the artwork isn't showing up in normal skin either.
This is what I've done so far :- One folder per album - done One "folder.jpg" file per album folder - done Be careful with folders with many different tracks, some programs put album art in there for one of the tracks and this will give you lots of wrong covers on all the others - Yup noticed this as well! Threw me a little at first! Sometimes Album art only shows up after you have browsed/played that particular album for the first time. - Yup noticed this, though this doesn't seem to be happening with the albums where art isn't showing. Fwiw I'm not using any programs (not that many exist for the mac it seems)and am dragging each image to the appropriate folder manually. This way I get to choose the best version available. Little longwinded but worth it! (wonder if I'll still be saying that after I've done the 100 or so audio stories I've got coming up!). -- davidcotton ------------------------------------------------------------------------ davidcotton's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4588 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=46294 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
