  2. No album art in Windows Media player mobile 10

    I've been happily syncing music from my windows media player 11 to my HTC Touch (WM6) for a while now, and have just recently read that I should be able to see album art on my phone. On my phone the media screen simply shows the track and album name, with
    a giant blackish-blueish void in the middle, it would be great to get some art there! any suggestions?



    On the Microsoft site I think I read that if there is album art in Windows media player on the PC it should automatically transfer the art, this doesnt seem to be happening.



    Thanks, James

    No album art in Windows Media player mobile 10

    This is from Windows Media Player Mobile FAQ (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/windowsmobile/faq.aspx)

    It is an old FAQ (May 2005) but I believe it offers some insight worth looking at.

    5.6 Why isn't album art displayed when I play a song? There are several reasons why album art might not be displayed when you play on song on your device. In order for album art to be displayed:

    • The album art must appear when you play the file on the desktop version of Windows Media Player. If the desktop Player cannot display the album art, then the album art cannot be copied to your device.

    • You must use the Sync feature in the desktop version of Windows Media Player 10 to copy songs to your device. This ensures that the album art on your desktop computer is copied to the correct location on your device.

    • Windows Media Player 10 Mobile for Pocket PC or Windows Media Player 10 Mobile for Smartphone must be installed on your device. Only these versions can display album art.

    In some cases, album art might not be displayed correctly if the art is embedded in the file (for example, by using the Advanced Tag Editor in the desktop version of Windows Media Player).
