Well as far as I know, SideSqueeze works but the problems lies with the
hardware. With your Momento you should only be able to get now playing
text rather than album art.

I got quite excited about MS SideShow and built this for all the great
picture frames etc. that were coming out. iMate were supposed to be
releasing a Momento 2 (that should, in theory, show album art using
SideSqueeze) but it went bust after fraud allegations.

I follow the Microsoft SideSqueeze developer community a little and
from what I see there the whole concept of SideSqueeze seems to be
dead. Not officially but I don't see any new devices coming out.

Don't expect to ever get alum art working on your Momento via SideShow
based software unless someone hacks the frame's firmware to better
support it. You may find another method though, who knows.

Next time I'll wait for the hardware before developing the software :)
