Cover art on Mp3 player

can anyone tell me why the cover art shows up on WindowsMediaPlaye but when i sync it with my fuze only some of the cover art shows up on the music library? im using the Elite RC2 rom if that helps....

anyone? know the answer to my problem?

If you want cover art for music you need to save a hidden file in the same directory as the mp3 file and name it like this '~hTC_Piano Chill.jpg'. Just start the name with ~hTC_ and then the name of the album.
Then edit the album title on the summary tab of the mp3 file to use the album name that is the same as the jpg. Don't include the ~hTC_ part there though. That's it.

Or embed the album art in the tags.

I use this program:
http://www.mp3tag.de/en/
Then I add the album art to all of the files. You can use this program to get album arts too from amazon.
Then I just put the files in my storage card
And BAM! You have it. After putting in your phone you might have to soft reset in order for the album picture to appear.

I've got over 10,000 songs. Is there an automated way to do this?

Not really. This program is best for one album at a time. If you have your 10,000 songs well organized in separate folders you can do this with ease.

i use mediamonkey, it can download album art from the net and update the tags... it can even sync with the TP.. i tested around 10 mp3 ID3 Tag programs before i found mediamonkey. Try it

windows media player has that function, just right click the song/album --> find album info ---> select right one ----> ok ----> right click song/album again ---> update album info.
or do what i did iTunes will do it very will, u need an account

WMP and Itunes both add album art work to their own libraries and it doesnt all sync over to the fuze for some reason. thats why i started this thread.....
now on to a new but related problem. i used mp3tag to edit the tags and embed all the album art then dropped all my music into my card and did a soft reset. the problem now is that instead of displaying the album art i get " ! " sign.anyone else had this problem? or know how to fix it?
does sync media monkey have the same problem?
or do i need to sync it using WMP again?
EDIT: nvm problem fixed itself guess it just needed a min to read all those song the majority of the song have albulm arteork and tags just a couple here and there that i either missed or just need to re upload. thanks alot for turning me onto mp3tag love it

[Q] Music player album art

I am trying to get album art in the Xoom music app. In the music app directions is says to copy the album art picture into the subdirectory with the songs and name it 'albumart.jpg'
music\abba\gold\albumart.jpg
Has anyone else got this to work or any suggestions?
The album and songs show up in the music app but not the album art.
I have re-booted but that did not work.
3g/wifi Xoom.

I have had some issues with the cover art working as well. I downloaded "Cover Art Grabber" from the market and it downloaded and inserted the problem art.

Thanks for the reply. I tried "Cover Art Grabber" and another program but I could not get them to insert the cover art in to the default music app.
What I did do to get it to work was, after in put the 'albumarm.jpg' into the correct directory, I went to Settings/manage apps/ and cleared the data in the music app. After I restarted the music app it found the cover art.

There are a few apps that can do that. Do a search on ID3 and there are apps there that can insert cover art into the Xoom's media database (without having a picture file in the folder). Some of these ID3 apps can also insert covers directly into the MP3/M4A.
I've tried Cover Art Grabber, Cover Art Downloader, AudioTagger Free, MP3 Tagger (I think this can also fix foreign garbled ID3 tags), iTag, DroID3Tagger but I can't tell you which is the best as my Xoom is dead now.

Hi Guys,
I used the free MediaMonkey last night and it worked really well. I removed all the album art info that exsisted and then used the "auto tag from the web" which found the album cover and added it in the correct format. Now all my albums show correctly

Stock Music Player Wallpaper

All the songs That I have on my phone has the same background cover for every songs, how do I remove it ALL? I have sense 3.5 on my phone. RcMix v3.1

Most likely you have a picture saved in your music folder. And since your songs do not have an embedded album art for each song it is using that pic for everything. I myself do not use a hidden jpeg pic for album art. I embed each song's tag with an album art when I rip it. If I have to add an album art for each song after being ripped I use dBpoweramp(not free) or MP3Tag(free).

I use droID3Tagger. It's free in the market and will search for and embed album art into the song.

I will have to check that out fernandezhjr. That may come in real handy.
Edit: DroID3Tagger works well, but only works if the music files are MP3. I also gave another app called Audio Tagger a try and it works well also. Plus it does other formats besides MP3s. Both apps are top notch and will fix up your music library in no time.

Media Problem

I am having a minor problem in my recently bought Asus Zenfone 4
The problem is that both the asus music player and google play music app are showing only one same album art for every song, allthough each song has its own album art and also when i play those songs on pc then the respective album art appears.
I organize my song collection by removing all other tabs except the title and album, the software i use for this task is Mp3tag.
so can anyone please point out the solution for this problem.
also i wanted to ask if the beta app of vlc is safe to use on my device.

Google Play Music album art problem

I have a problem with album art of albums with the same name.
I have 4 albums with the name "Greatest Hits" from 2Pac, Bill Withers, Guns N' Roses and Red Hot Chili Peppers; all of them have the album art from Bill Withers' album.
Same problem with the album "Awake" which I have from Godsmack and Skillet; the album art is from Skillet's album.
I noticed that if I delete all the music from my SD card and re-copy it, the problem persists but the album art might be from another album with the same name (rather than what I mentioned before).
All the mp3 tags were manually filled by me (including album art) and they appear correctly on my PC. I have a Motorola Moto E with Android 4.4.4.
Any way to fix this?

Anyone?

Can't be the only one having this problem right?
