Help! Stock music app shows wrong album art - Hero, G2 Touch General

Whenever i launch the stock sense music app, all album arts are a picture of eminem reloading a silver gun, which are completely wrong album art.. I've tried to delete album thumb from sdcard and rebooted my phone many times. Its pretty annoying when i got 1100 songs and all of them got slim shady album art!
Please help :/

Haha no one needs that much Slim Shady.
I have similar strange issues with the Music app. Not that severe, most of my art shows up properly, but some of it just won't show up no matter what I do. I've even formatted my SD card and put my music back fresh. I'm wondering if the Music app has some sort of cache for album art that's stored on the phone itself. Next time I flash a new ROM, I will try formatting my SD card at the same time to make sure I get rid of any cache, plus any album art that's stored with the music on my SD, and I'll report back here.

I was having problems with art on the stock music app. Bought Album Art Grabber from the market and solved it. However I have now changed over to MixZing as my music player and that grabs the art just fine.

does getting album art work for you?

so i know the mediascape has this function but every time i try and get an album art it NEVER finds it.
anyone ever actually obtain the album art for a song?
Yes, this has worked for me with great results. But u have to be connected to wifi for it to work. Hopefully with an update this can be done via 3g.

so basically everytime i try and get album art it gives me - album art not found. it's freakin' NIN. how do you not find NIN album art!!!??
Yours just doesn't find art for certain albums?
Mine errors out in under a minute, doesnt even get around to searching. lol
Mine use to work fine but I just tried for some new albums I got and it either told me can't be found or error O_O I don't understand these are mainstream well known albums and it worked fine a week ago
I've noticed that if you file the mp3's in seperate folder by artist then album it seems to not like that ?
I tend to use an mp3 tagger on the pc first to get the right track details on the mp3's first though, then the album art works a lot better for me ?
Not working here either. I get "system error" when I start downloading (after the phone has counted the available album art). Reset app, restart phone, etc does not help.
I used MediaGo to upload all my music. MediaGo added album art to some of the albums. Is that also the case for those of you who get error messages?
me too, I get "system error" while trying to get album art!
I'm using the cube or 3 for playing mp3's and album art comes really easy!

so to clarify -
some people on the X10 are getting an error message while trying to get album art while using the X10. basically you play a song on the phone with mediascape, left button -> get album art -> error message
for me, i get to that screen, i don't get an error message but it doesn't find the album art.
i've used mediago and i've updated some songs. but i don't see why it's not work and why it asks for wifi connection to even get an album art.
Yes, system error while trying to get album art!

same with me i always get error
Update:
I AM able to fetch album art for the song that is playing. (Of course, it doesn't ALWAYS find a match, but it works.)
BEFORE, the system error occured when I chose "fetch album art" from Mediascape home screen (all albums at once).
At the moment, I seem to be downloading 284 covers at once!
Those of you who get "system error" should try downloading album art for a single song first, and then download from the home screen.
If that doesn't work, try playing a song while you attempt to fetch album art. (I've got no clue if that helps, all I know is that I am now playing a song and for the first time downloading tons of album art.)
For those who are struggling.
I use album art grabber from the market. It scrapes album art for you but also gives the ability to add your own e.g. from SD or browser.
lol i didn't even know you can get album art in the main menu of mediascape. i get an error right now. but it says it finds album art. started to download and by the 2nd art it gets the error.
error
shortt
Never worked for me so I downloaded Album Art Grabber from the Marketplace. It (usually) found the correct album art straight away but if it didn't I just went to Amazon, downloaded the album image to my SD card then used Album Art Grabber to link it with the songs in question.
hi guys got my x10i yesterday,,, pretty amazing android phone dammm....
i haven't experiencing any problem about album art on my song every thing is perfect sound are louder than i thought... i used MP3TAG to put album on my songs...
well what i did is i used MEDIA GO to transfer song.. slideME Apps. really cool... i live in DUBAI....

HD2 updating wrong album art... any suggestions?

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.

How Does Music App Get Album Art & Organize

Anyone know where the stock Music app is getting the album art from?
I took some mp3s where I purposefully changed the tags to bogus data--for an unrelated test--and put them in their own folder on the phone and it is giving it the original artists album art.
How's it doing that?
I'd like to know this too. I was putting the album covers in the same folders as the mp3's, which works for the music player to show the correct albums. But then in my gallery I have all the albums showing up as their own folder. Would like to just be able to put them all into one folder if possible?

[Q] Help! Mediascape shows me wrong album art for my songs

I just bought the xperia x10 a while ago and started to listen music on it..
I download music on limewire and put them all on my 8GB micro sd...
Pop in the micro sd to my xperia x10, boot it, mediascape,... whats wrong?
Some of my songs shows up the wrong album art. and whats strange is that all the songs with the wrong album art HAS THE SAME WRONG ALBUM ART.
So its weird, for exemple:
I have for example on my phone:
Dj Nightlife : Display right album art
DJ Ravine: Display right album art
Akon: Displays DJ Ravine's album art instead of akon album art...
Lil wayne: displays dj ravine's album art instead of lil wayne album art
please help im getting pissed
thank you
I would try fining the album art on your SD and deleting in, make sure its the right stuff your deleting though and letting mediascape re scan it all. and make sure the mp3 files have thr right artist etc listing in their details [right click the mp3 file and properties, details tab]
What you need to do is to view the files in media go and manually fix the mp3 tags of each song, it sucks i know. But thats becouse the guy who created the mp3s was sloppy.

[Q] Album Art not detected

Hi,
The stock music player app on my I9505 only detects a few album art covers while the remaining 80-90% are being displayed without any album art. The id3 tags are correct, each album in its own folder with a single jpg file as the album art in each folder. I've used these same folders on my old i9000 and the music player always detected stuff properly. I've restarted the phone, forced media scanner to run again, and its still not detecting the images. I've stored all my music on the external sd card, but that can't be the reason coz it does detect album art for a few albums. Any suggestions?
Anyone?
Album art doesn't seem to turn up even on the google music app.. Any help here guys?
