Synopsis::

First off, love the program! I am having problems with the embedded album art, though. I used Media Monkey to tag all of my mp3's with art. I then verified them through WMP 10. However when I use Media Portal about 1000 songs are showing the wrong album art or none at all. I have updated the database and check marked "Use coverart embedded..", but it does not seem to fix it. Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks

Take a look here... perhaps it can help....

I downloaded Album Cover Art Downloader and I am showing the right artwork. Media Portal just isn't showing right. Do you have to have separate folders for every album? Right now I just have separate folders for artists.

Thanks

I have seperate folders for albums, yes.

Use MusicBrainz (as in the link)

Btw, which view are you using ("view by", or whatever)?

The reason I'm askin is that my movie-arts are different in different views...

I am using the Icon view by Artist. Hadn't done separate album folders due to the sheer amount, but if that is what I need to do...
Some folders work out perfect. My AC/DC folder has about 10 different albums and all are represented right, while other folders aren't. That was why I wasn't splitting the music into separate album folders.
