Whenever I use a Windows Media player Skin other than the default one, I am faced with the Skin section in the options screen whenever I open Windows media player and whenever I begin playing any media. This is rather annoyinh - as I have to keep closing these options screen.
Is there a way to fix this?
Also, what is the ideal resolution of Album Art for WMP in VGA?
Thanks alot
I'd like to know how to fix this too, I have a nice little wm11 skin, which matches my vista mobile them.

To show album art, just place the album image in the same folder as the song(s) you wish it to be album art for and call it "Folder.jpg".

Best option is to use a program on your PC that can put the album picture in the MP3 file headers. That's what WMP11 does on the PC either automatically (it downloads from allmusic.com) or manually (you can paste any image as album cover).
Once the picture is in the MP3 headers, WMP on the pocketpc will show it while playing.
i've tried but not work
It will also display the cover art if it is saved as folder.jpg in the album's folder, just like desktop Windows Media player does.

seems to be the only way. what a hassle.
i use mediamonkey to embed the album art into mp3 and wma files
why cant wmp jus show the embedded picture?
is there any other music software which will do this simple task?
what would be ideal is a music software which showed embedded album art, turned on bluetooth and auto-connected to the ad2p headphones and also turned on auto-answer for all calls and set the device volume... anyone know somethign that does this!?
I just found S2P and it's great album art flip feature and realized....I don't have much album art...
Is there an application out there that will download album art for me?
I download conduits pocket player, which does this...but I can't find where it puts the image.
Thanks,
Matt
i dont know if you like this its kind of bothersome but i found this thing called mp3tags.what you do is find your music that doent have any art and embed the art into the mp3 yourself.its simple but if you have alot of mp3`s then you may not like it
I use windows media player ( on my computer )... with the old urge program..... and when i right click a song it gives me the option to find the album info on line or insert my own.
it compares your song with a online library and updates it with the full name .... and album cover.
I think i have an automatic option on mine because it seems as if it searches for them automatically when ever I buy new mp3 with out album covers.
once everything is updated just sync it to your phone using windows media and you should be good. All my music is organized, rated, and with full album info.
Hello,
I've got a question concerning the Touch Flo3D Music Player. Like everyone knows, it shows the album art, but I haven't got album art in most music files on my PC, so they are also not on my PDA.
The Pocket Player can download the Album Art, but it does not save them.
So is there any program or plugin which can download the album art for my music files in my pocket pc.
Maybe a plugin for the Touch Flo Player?
Thanks for Help
Bump.
Does anyone know of an app that can automatically download and update mp3 media with album art, information, etc? I think Windows Media player does it on the PC and some other media apps.
Any help appreciated
try this one

Thanks, it looks like the ideal app!
EDIT: noticed that this is for the PC, do you know if there is a PPC version?
Hi
How do I get album art to appear in the media panel when I browse through my albums?? All my tunes are on a microSD, and each album has a jpg album cover within its folder. WMP can see the album covers, but the SE media panel just shows the default turntable icon.
Any idea's?
Nigel
I would like to know this as well.
I real elsewhere that this is a no - which makes the media panel all but useless for me - I am too used to nav via pics!
Try Kinoma Player (or free player) which does do album-art.

I've got album art appearing on my media panel for just about all my albums, i think the trick is to embed the album art into the MP3s themselves, rather than using an external jpeg image, which is something i did a long time ago for my PSP... looking through my collection the only ones without album art are the albums i have got since i last updated my PSP, so i think that's a fairly safe bet.
sheesh... then I've got to embed my MP3s with the album art one by one? Hmmm... if so guess that's one area where my Touch Pro's media player's better. All I need is the album art named as 'folder.jpg'. Thought it'd work for this as well.
Album art
if its a win mobile phone jus sync with window media center easy as can be can even copy album art else were and paste rite into your media center NYC BayBee
Realized that when playing in Windows Media Player, I can see the album art. Not only that, I can see the chinese font (whereas using the media player panel, all I see are question marks).
When I synced my music collection with WMP, I got to see all the artwork in the media panel, but the playlists themselves are not synced by WMP, which is not handy as I mostly listen to those playlists themselves. Based on some tips, I went to iTunes and synced with Salling Media Sync, which does sync all MP3's and playlists, but now the artwork is no longer shown in the media panel, even though all MP3's files still have the artwork embedded in them. This is strange and annoying: either no artwork or no playlists.
You need to tag your mp3 files correctly use the below program to alter the mp3 tags and embed the album art

If you've got a lot it may take some effort but it's worthwhile.

I have done that. I used that same program to embed all the covers in the MP3 files. Have been working on that for days, but still it doesn't show up in the media panel.
Hi,
Transferred my music from WMP over to my Nexus and only some have album art.
My album art has been manually added as "cover art" through WMP.
Would I have more success if I manually add the album art in iTunes?
Does anyone have this problem and has found one is better than the other? These are the only two media players I've ever used but have just come back to Windows so could consider WinAmp if anyone knows how that works with the Nexus?
Cheers. Paul.
Mate all my itunes music had album art.. i transferred it and its not showing :S only some of it is
Was your album art manually added and embedded into the files or just downloaded via iTunes?
Majority by itunes...
It may not be this ultimate fix and it may or may not work on the nexus(I'm still on G1) but Album Art Grabber in the market works well...until you wipe.

This is the problem.
iTunes stores the album art in a different folder and assigns it to the music when loaded.
It does this ONLY if the artist and album title are completely correct, but does not embed it to the track or folder.
There is a way to assign the album art and EMBED it into each track without having to worry about .jpgs hanging around

that program works great haha
how do i fix the unknown artist thing.. and missin album title.. i edit it in itunes but it doesnt change
You mustn't be editing it properly.
Remeber you have to edit the Artist, Album in iTunes but ALSO the track title in windows explorer (iTunes changes the embedded info).
Windows may show UNKNOWN album or artist but in iTunes it will be right.
Make sure you change it all, but it is tedious, but once it's dine it'll never need doing again and no unsightly .jpgs in all your music folders.
Oh i get you now mate.. See im on a mac :S thats why im getting confused with how to edit it out of itunes..
I get albums doubled aswell.. must be cus of the name..
Is there no program to edit it on the phone?
Theres a couple for gettin the album art on the market, 'album art grabber' as someone mentioned and 'mp3 tagger' does as well i believe
yeye got the albumart sorted
i mean one that would let me edit
Artist, Album, etc on the phone.. cus using a mac i carnt edit it on here really
