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.

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.
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 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.

Ive been trying to get the music album art on my incredible, but Nothing seems to work. Any suggestions? I want to so i can use the Album art live wallpaper. I know their are some apps in the market that do this, but they are listed as not working with the incredible. Other apps just display the album art and not download it to the proper directory like I want it to. I use double twist to sync my iTunes library but, won sync the album art. What are some simple ways to get the Music album art on the Incredible?
Download "Album Art Grabber". It automatically grabs album art for every song on your SD card. You can also manually switch each to other possibilities if the one it gives is incorrect. I've been using it for a while and love it

I would but it says the incredible isn' t supported. Any other suggestions?

I just downloaded it for my incredible and it is indeed, inedible! It may say it doesn't support it but it does
Edit: ok it def works good but it is a lil slow. Maybe that's because i have 3500 songs lol.

Maybe its not the easiest, but I would embedding album art in your mp3s with a program like mp3tag. I was having problems until I did this. Album art should work across any device or program that supports album art going forward after you take the time to do this.
Just my .02$
Mediamonkey. or for simplicity use cubed player
I'm transferring music from my computer to the Galaxy S2 via Kies/Wifi but the album art for all the songs except two are the same. There seems to be no way to change the album art on the S2. In Kies I can see the tiny thumbnail when playing the song is the correct one.
Bug ?
I have this issue too, when your looking at the music in list format, the artwork is all differant, but when you play a file the bigscreen artwork is the same

2 Solutions although not a direct fix for your issue.
Firstly, download one of the Album Art Grabber apps from the market and update your album art. There are paid apps and free ones, all offer similar functionality. Auto Scan and change individual albums.
Secondly, buy PowerAmp. There's not much to say other than it provides the best Android music experience hands down. Aswell as offering a multitude of eq settings and options, it allows you to change individual album art on the fly.
Good luck.
Regards.
I managed to fix this so see if it works. With mp3tag you need to make the album title unique for each mp3 you want to have a unique picture. I had lots of single tunes and the album tag was blank. Because of this they all took on the same album art. If you make the album the filename which can be done as a batch process they all display ok.
My only problem is getting albums to play in track order, the SII always puts things in alphabetical order, very annoying for mix cds.
Thank you both.
I went for the MP3Tag option as that's what I've been using and it's worked fine !
thanks this fixed my problem as well
