Thanks Sinatra,
So let me get this clear in My Music currently I have loads of folders
(and individual songs) but I could have 3 folders for three albums by
the same artist in there such as Daft Punk - Homework, Daft Punk -
Discovery, Daft Punk - Live in Berlin.

As far as I can see that's about all you have to do. Make sure you have

well, u said you see wedding singer for most of your music.
so, the simplest and most likely explanation is you have lots of files

if SBS is showing one art for many differing things, one way or
another, there is a reason for it.

Any news on this issue?
I especially asked for this functionality before buying the unit and
was being told by logitech that it would work the way i need it (see
beginning of this thread). It was a major buying point for me which is
even after several weeks not being addressed. The only thing i

I'm going to have to second the recommendation to embed the album art in

Thanks for the link. I'm a little disappointed they decided to use a
proprietary package on the AAs. Seems a little wasteful IMO, both in
manufacturing and recycling/disposal. It does give Logitech one healthy
markup though.
