(another) album art probem

Hi I'm new here and I'm sorry if this question was asked millions of times but I'm not looking and cannot always solve my problem

the question is, I have connected my Fuze in MTP mode, used Media Monkey and WMP11 for importing files, but sometimes arts album show up, sometimes, they don't. Each file has built-in pouch and each folder a folder.jpg album or Album Art.jpg and inside .alb file. All images are 120 x 120 and less than 50 KB.

Please help me, I'm tired of delete and synchronize everything again and again

Thank you for reading

  1. Make sure all your tags are ID3v2.3 ISO-88559-1 (No UTF). The combo (ID3v1, ID3v2.3) tag is OK, but you don't want some that are v1 & some that are the v2.3. Media Monkey can be allright, but a dedicated like MP3TAG tagging program is specifically designed to do one thing; and do it correctly. Tag music files. And it's free.
  2. I would be suspicious to use Photoshop to 'Edit' or change album art images. It can record the result in a format (although it may still be .jpg) that the "rocket" has a reading problem (there are different versions of the .jpg format). There should be no need to modify or to try to improve these tiny images anyway. Whatever changes you make to an image is probably is not going to be visible in his poster the size on the screen of the rocket. The maximum size of any image of album art should be only around 200 x 200 (or even less). Something more great as it is will only be reduced to the displayed size, compaction (or compression) the image still further, which leads to less distinction and clarity (the opposite of what you want). Also if the image is too large, the "rocket" will not even appear at all. It's all just too big to handle.
  3. Choose a name for your art files and stick to it. I have all mine as 'album art.jpg. I have several players of e200 series and they all work for me. Then the "rocket" is out, and everyone now says the album art has to be labelled "folder.jpg". Is there a difference, and the "rocket" have a preference? I have no idea. I'm certainly not going through several hundred albums and add another file 'folder.jpg' for each album folder! I recently got a rocket did not have honestly a lot of time playing with it at the moment. I put some files on it and it seemed to view the files 'album art.jpg' very well. They can both work, but I wouldn't have a combination of both. I their name to one or the other and stick with it.
  4. Also I wouldn't "cover your bet" by having the two embedded album art and separate 'album art.jpg' file in each folder from the album. This could be the cause of confusion in the brain wee of the rocket, "only one I watch, this one or that? (unintentional ryhmes) Once again, one or the other. There is no need for both. Supposedly, with the latest version of Firmware, embedded album art support has been added for MP3 files, but in the last days, I read that this cannot be fixed 100% yet. So if you already have a file 'Add' art for all your records album in any case, you can remove the "embedded" art in the ID3tag. It's also something MP3TAG can do fo you.

EDIT: I just took a look at the songs of the sample that came pre-installed on my Fuze. He has a record ALBUMS. The e200 series players this is different. This isn't the ALBUM folder I was alluding to in the discussion where the 'album art.jpg' file should be located. It is in the MUSIC/ARTIST/ALBUM folder alongside the music files themselves.

This new ALBUMS folder is in the root directory alongside the MUSIC, PHOTO, VIDEO, & SERVICE records. This is a "hidden" file and it contains files .alb of all music that is loaded on the player.

I also grew these music pre-installed in MP3TAG files. All were indeed the tag (ID3v1, ID3v2.3) combo and each of them had "built-in" album art

    Mp3Tag is a free download, but you can make a donation to the author.  Should be supported, as well as the tool works!

  • WMP 11 & ALBUM ART

    Hi all.

    WMP 11 on my XP PRO SP3 prevented to auto. Download album (mp3/cda) arts. All music files & legal CD audio were tested on an other PC vista with wmp 11 and auto. Download of album art works very well (so this means album art are present on the database online).

    I have no problem downloading manually from the album art. I checked all the definitions again player ' not again, all are very good. I UN / reinstalled WMP, went back to version 9, rebuild library WMP, done sfc/scan, I don't use system restore and I do not remember any new update/software lately, I installed, no this virus/malware - but still not good...

    I read this article as wellhttp://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/knowledgecenter/howto/mp11/albumart.aspx

    especially the part-"Why Album Art is sometimes missing"

    and found an intresting line in it-"... administrator has prevented your computer to download items such as album art."

    Now I am the admin on my PC and my questions are:

    1 how\where exactly I check if administrator (me) prevented computer to download items such as album art? (maybe I did it by mistake?)

    2-is there another way to solve the problem (except repair installation for windows which I want to avoid)

  • Low quality when importing through Media Go album art

    When the album art is added manually in Media Go, it is scaled to 640 x 640 and recompressed in a<150 kb="" image="" with="" 4:2.0="" chroma="">

    The result seen on a smartphone with a screen high resolution range from disappointing to terrible. On the Xperia Z3 with the current application of the Walkman for example, album art is displayed on screen to 787 x 787. 640 x 640 would end up a bit soft but acceptable, but with the extreme comrpession it looks hideous.

    During extraction of music FLAC or high flow MP3 or AAC, it is not essential to this work be compressed as much. When I prepare the album art I resize it to 787 x 787 and save it in the format JPEG with 4:4:4 chroma sampling, and depending on the complexity of the art and the setting of the quality, the result usually ends up range from 200 KB to 400 kB. This gives a perfectly acceptable quality to this resolution and is of a reasonable size in 2015.

    I don't know why Media Go emphasizes the art of recompression in quality of phone service mid-' 00s era. But I would like the possibility to embed the original JPEG Media Go ' such what» Currently, I have to go through the music with Mp3tag to replace art. It works, but then I have to close Media Go to avoid conflicts of files.

    Let the Media Go fetch worst Gracenote art still produce results.

    Don't know why photos are put on the scale / compressed in a way but as you say, it's probably because of the size and compatibility for Media Go is used for many different devices. Currently I can only recommend that you use your current solution or use another software to rip your CD.

  • The lost Album art

    I wanted to create space on my main hard drive by moving all my music files on a secondary hard drive.  I did it manually (cut on one single hard drive and pasted to another), hoping that WMP would be able to track where the music went.  After you move the files, WMP not found music, which seemed an easy problem to solve.  HOWEVER, when I opened the files on the new site, all of the album art was gone.  I brought all the files to their original location, hoping that WMP would be happy if everything was back to its original location.  This solves the problem of WMP, being able to find the music files, but the album art is still missing.  Not only that, but I can't find a way to put it back - if I tape "update of the news of the album," nothing is happening; If I type "find album info" it shows the art in the pop up window, but when I hit 'Finish', art is not yet there. and even when I try to paste the album art, nothing happens.

    Can someone help me get my album art?  I can't stand all these empty images of CD case to look at.

    Well, I answered a question but wound up with the other.  I solved my problem with the album art - Fortunately, I had saved my main hard drive yesterday, so I just deleted all the music of two hard drives and then restored the backup files.  That worked - all album art is back.

    (I tried to come back to this forum to delete my question or indicate that I had resolved, but it wouldn't let me connect.  When I tried to connect, the only option that was provided was to create a new account (when I clicked on "sign in", he says in one place that I have already connected and the only option that I could find was to create a new profile).  Where my answer profile being slightly different name from the profile used with the original question.)

    Hi Sullida,

    Slideshow of Windows Media Center will include all the images he finds that appear in folders that Windows Media Center is "Watch".  If there is album art in a music folder, it will be part of the slide show.  You can take a look at what look at Windows Media Center records and move album art that you'll find in another location so that it will reveal is no longer in your slideshow.  We have provided steps below that will show you how to check which folders are monitored.

    1. start Windows Media Center
    2. go in tasks
    3. then settings
    4. Select Configure library
    5. Select stop watching a folder
    6. click Next

    Do not actually disable a folder, but you can look through this list and see the witch files are monitored.  Leave it and close Windows Media Center.  You can now go to the folders in the list and either move or remove covers album or any other images that you do not want to be in the show.  Remove album art will have any impact on current music files playback.  Most of the music files should have the album art themselves are nested, it will still appear in Windows Media Center.  Please let us know if you have any other questions.

  • Album Art ceased to show Album mode only

    I discussed the digitization project of my collection of discs, tapes and music CD after learning how to acquire and preserve the sound I've been adding Album art. I was told that it was possible to get pictures on the Internet. Fake! 99.9% failure rate. I found a decent picture of hundreds of attempts. It seems that the identification code that is on each disk or tape is completely ignored, why?

    Not intimidated, I put my camera, my own photos and have been successfully installing them until a few weeks ago, when occurred two things.

    First Media player in Album mode ceased to display album art and simply lists all. Artist and Genre mode displays everything as usual.

    Second, when I tried to install a photo, I received a message saying that the album art could not be applied when the file has been used by another program, but I can't know what the "other program" is. I stopped and restarted my computer, checked my Clipboard Editor is ready with something appropriate to album art, started Media Player, said the file that requires the album art and again to get the message that the file is in use by another program.

    The only thing that's happened before this condition manifests itself, as far as I know, is a major upgrade to Windows 7.

    What should I do next?

  • Cannot manually add album art

    I just got a new computer and installed the latest version of iTunes for Windows. I added my music library without any problems and was pleased to see that album art has been updated automatically but on the few remaining albums who had not added automatically work I am unable to do it manually (click with the right button on album > info > work). Art seems to have been added but when I hit "ok" and return to iTunes there is no change, it still shows the grey double quaver.

    I've done several times before and had no problems.

  • Album art disappears for songs from the same album.

    I was wondering if anyone else has this problem with AirPlay on Apple TV (4th generation)

    Album art perfectly fine poster to a playlist in which each subsequent song has a different album cover than the preceding.

    If, however, I play 2 or more songs in succession from the same album (and with the same cover), the album cover displays the playback of the first track and then disappears to the other songs on this album. Album art does not appear again until a song on a new album (with different cover art) is selected.

  • The album art to music Apple AirPlay or Spotify is only shown for the first song

    Apple TV 4 running tvOS 9.2

    When the music plays to Apple TV since iOS album art appears for the first song in an album or a playlist. After the next song, the album art shows a gray music note. It's intermittent, but it happens often. Seems to happen more consistently with Spotify, but also happens with Apple music.

    I've noticed that when my ATV 4 AirPlaying Slacker Radio. In my case, they are long unique jazz tracks, and the album cover cannot paste at the end of the track. Of course, lazy, don't return because it has already been sent. I guess the software decides she has had enough and deletes the image.

  • The title of the album Art not centered

    I added to my TV series of album art in iTunes, but the work is the size of a (rectangular compared to the square) DVD cover and iTunes don't center-align the text of the title of TV Show in the middle of the work. A way to solve this problem?

    behavior of iTunes with rectangular drawing (portrait) changed several releases ago centered to left-aligned.  The only way to solve this problem is to use an image editor suitable to make the place of the image: cropping the image or the aspect ratio or adding spaces to the left and to the right.

  • My album art does not charge even after it has been added by get info &gt; add work then press OK

    SO I recently did the music on my computer, and I wanted to add to my phone. After you download the tracks to itunes, I tried to add album art, I did. To be honest, it does not work. Here's what I do: Get Info > add an illustration. At this point, I see my art, and when I click it, it changes to be enclosed by a blue square free of deceit. Of course, I click on it so that it appears highlighted, as such, but when I click OK, nothing happens. ITunes is seem to be in the process of loading, but then the three notes "do - do" there, and nothing has changed.

    For reference, the work is a compressed JPEG size 1625 squared.

    What is happening with my itunes? Is this a known bug?

    What is the format of the tracks?  If they are. WAV files, you can't combine work with them.  Otherwise, the issue may be that the files are read-only, or that the Windows permissions prevent the updated files to integrate the image.
