Probably a stupid question, but if I want my album art to show up in the HTC music player where should I put it? I'm running the latest JustAnotherCrowd ROM.
Thanks..
You need to tag each file by, for example, using this: mp3tag

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.
I have a number of tracks that have Album Art embeded. For some strange reason the the music player selects the same graphic for every track.
Have no problem with a complete album with a folder.jpg file, but my problem is that I have a folder with a collection of MP3 files. They all look fine in Media Monkey and MP3Tag.
Update: Just noticed that a hidden file is created (~hTC_Misc-MP3.jpg) and this appears why all the graphics are the same. Is there a way to stop this so the graphic is read from embeded image??
Any ideas ???
Well, usually, different tracks come from different albums. Create your folder structure accordingly.
If your different tracks situation is a compilation, than the compilation is an album itself and needs an album art of its own.
i got that problem when I was using the HD2 ONLY in landscape mode, are you using it in landscape mode?
I need landscape mode while driving, but it just doesnt work properly, so sad... have to use pocketplayer

I have a folder with a collection of about 50 random tracks, so it would be a bit of a pain to put them in different folders, but I get your point. Perhaps the only thing to do id to create my own compilation cover.
Perhaps this is just a pit fall with the standard media player.

It's excellent. You can remove any unwanted artwork that is embedded and if you want give each track it's own cover.
All my artwork is correct after using this.
Ok, I might call this as an Album art Update problem..
When I do an update album art for all song.. It shows "link to gracenote" But I doubt it actually updates anything.
But when I do an update album art for current song. It does update the album art for the same. Also it shows an Album art download result, in the same place.
Is there a way to get it fixed.
I am on a Stock ROM , SIM Free..Specifically (1.48.720.2 WWE)
Mansoor...
Well any help on this..
Can't help with your problem but I can confirm this facility is quite rubbish. Sometimes no art at all and sometime the wrong art!

I've never bothered with album art - more interested in the music - it is interesting to find out that you can embed art into ID3 tags. I'll give it a go.
Also take a look at mp3tag at http://www.mp3tag.de/en/ which is donationware, I use it for files and it's perfect for me.

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
see here (post 4)

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
I installed a cab to automatically load the music player on startup, which fixed my main issue with the Sense music player... slow loading. However, I'm still having an issue updating album art. Everytime I do, most of the album art is incorrect, and completely irrelevant to the album it's associated with. I'm syncing my music with WMP, where all the album art is correctly updated... but for some reason the album art isn't syncing.
Is there any way to sync my music AND album art? I have a lot of albums, and really don't want to go through every one of them and rename the album art.
Thanks in advance for any help!
i don't use WMP for synch'ing, instead mediamonkey.
from what i know, the album art (the image files) per album must be put in the same folder.
so whatever music transfer software you use, it must be stored on HD2 per album.
hope it helps.
I just put the music & everything on my storage card manually & the sense player automatically finds it. For album art make sure to put a pic named folder.jpg in there with whatever album art you want.
There are no post about this so my problem:
I'm actually using wizcyan 3.1 rom and I was wondering how can I get the album art on lockscreen?
I know S4 by default supports it.
I asked the rom developer but I didn't get a satisfying answer.
I was wondering what should I mod in order to get album art in lockscreen again, because smusic nor play music can't see album art.
Thank you.
Edit: just realized I exchanged the order of the words art and album, it should be swapped. My bad

Sorry, I'm using i9505.
Anyway, I think it's a matter of modifying something.
If the music player can't see the album artwork then the music file doesn't have it. So either add it to the file, add it to the folder as cover.jpg or use some art grabber to automatically download it.

That's not the problem. Mine is on lockscreen, the lockscreen wallpaper doesn't show the album art. I was wondering what should I modify to see album art when phone is locked (apart from smusic's option which I don't like).

Update your samsung music at google play store and now you can have album art on lockscreen ^_^
That one is when activating the option which let you switch music in lockscreen, which is imo really useless because you have already it as notice in lockscreen (they didn't even revert shuffle and repeat toggle which was useful for me at least for the latter). I know wallpaper's lockscreen changes to the album art when playing music (any rom that sticks with stock touchwiz has it). So it has to be a port problem. I really want to know how to give it album art without that nonsense option. There should be something to modify in order to get it again.
