I've had it for a while and it did nothing. I almost forgot it's there.

I assumed it works automatically but it does nothing?

It doesn't seem to do anything for me either.

I use the attached script to copy the cover art from my computer (Rhythmbox,Banshee) to my N900. The script is run on the computer and the N900 needs to have an OpenSSH server running.

On the machine, install:
  • gvfs-backends
  • python-mutagen
  • python-gobject

On the N900, install:
  • openssh-server

Edit the the N900_ART URI in the script to point to your N900 and then just run the script. I already thought about making it the other way around and creating an application for the N900 which can copy covers arts from other computers via SSH and/or load images from the web.

This script assumes that it is run from the home directory, that music is stored in a directory named "Musik". But this can be changed by editing the script.
Attached Files
File Type: tar cover-arts.tar (10.0 KB, 96 views)

Figure I shouldn't create a thread and will ask here...

Half of the music on N900 do not have an album cover art. However, the one that are missing the album art, the images are in "picture" folder. When I connect N900 to the computer, those album art are no where to be found. I was only able to locate the album art that are working properly.

It's a bit annoying since each album without an album art, there would be 4 pictures of it in "picture" folder. Now my picture folder is jam pack with 4 of the same image for about 30 album... WIth N900, not saving filter setting, it could be quite annoying if you didn't tag pictures. Also, the album that work properly, the album art won't show up in "picture" folder which is what I wants.

ANyone know how I could fix this issue? N900 wouldn't let me delete the duplicate images.

Download mp3tag in to your computer and run it in your music folders on N900.

Tried it on a few albums and it worked a treat, will do the rest now.

I guess Windows Media Player gets album art by putting a jpeg in the file folder rather than embedding it in the file?

How does it work? It would be nice if album pictures could be downloaded automatically (on demand).

I've no idea, I've never installed it. I've seen it in app manager though, and just thought that it may be a reason for cover images appearing without having been manually installed.
