Stop N900 scanning music covers & placing them in images?
 
Hi

I have in .sounds a folder called Music. And in there is all my mp3 including album covers/art etc

The problem I have is that when I look at my images eg those taken my camera etc, it shows all the album covers which I dont want. Is there a way to stop this?

There does not seem to be an option in /home/user/.config/tracker/tracker.cf

Any advice appreciated.

Scott

Yes, embed the album art into the MP3 files. I used Media monkey to do this, then I also scanned through images on my N900 and removed all the music album art. Problem solved.

Seconding this. I used mp3tag to do it.

if you embed the images into each mp3 file, you still have to delete the original image files from the folder. The photo viewer will not recognize mp3 files as images.
