I currently have my music files in ML 3 and they are saved on my pc at C://music. I want to be able to see album art in ML 3 when playing my songs.

I imported my music into WM11 and that created album art for my music. This can be seen when I open WM 11. I do not know where this art is stored on my computer.

I would like some help bringing this art into ML3 . Currently when I open ML 3 my music is in list form. Can I get some assistance helping me with this task.


Thanks,

Mike

oh, you poor bugger. WMP is nasty for album art. It has a default size of 200x200 dots and uses a really stoopid scheme for storing it (IMO). (AlbumArt-small.jpg and albumart-large).

I use 500x500 images from Amazon, stored as folder.jpg, or embedded within the MP3 file (MP3Tag is a great free program), and then tell WMP to STAY THE HELL AWAY FROM MY MUSIC as even if you say don't download Album art, it tends to corrupt all the images and MAKE THEN SMALLER.

Also I can't read the WMP style album art. Sorry about that.

Some people have reported album art being broken in ML2/3. Unfortunately it may not be fixed soon either...

mjc8870 is using the V8 beta, so technically it should be working.

And I might rename that post fuzzweed...

I see that WMP 11 is not friendly. How should I go about creating album art from my music files and what program should I use?

How do I bring album art into ML 3?
