Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] album art but I've got a NAS
Alternatively, there are utility apps for managing your iTunes library - including features to export artwork. I found one via google - sorry don't have the name to hand. Then you can keep your artwork separate from the audio files or embed it using utilities such as mp3tag. Tons of info in the ripping/managing forum. Good luck. -- squishy squishy's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=35390 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=75581 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
[SlimDevices: Radio] album art but I've got a NAS
Hi Just got my squeezebox radio which i LOVE. I've just got a question about album art. Before I go on let me tell you my setup: I've got my music on my QNAP NAS on \\qmultimedia\music\artist\album I only use iTunes for ipod pc access so my iTunes library is located on my PC accessing the music library on the NAS. I used the Get Artwork function from iTunes to get various album artwork. I have since noticed that there is an artwork directory under \MyMusic\iTunes\AlbumArtwork. Now on my Squeezebox radio some albums are coming up with artwork but others (which have art on itunes) aren't. Does that make sense? I'm just wondering where the SB Radio is accessing the artwork files from. Ideally I would like to be able to add artwork for all tracks so would like to find out the ideal location to store them. Finally, is there some program or more automatic way of getting pics, and putting them in the right place for every single album, or even track??? Thanks in advance! -- padzster padzster's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=23215 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=75581 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

Have you set the experimental option in SB Server for extract artwork from iTunes? -- jmpage2 jmpage2's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=75581 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

Couldn't find that. By experimental did you mean longed for? -- padzster padzster's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=23215 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=75581 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio

Go to the Squeezebox Server webpage- Settings button (lower right of screen)- iTunes tab- Check the box that says Extract iTunes Artwork (Experimental)- Click Apply- Report back if this helps. P.S. Squeezebox Server has to be set up for iTunes for this to work, but it's not that difficult to set up. You can simply copy your Library.XML into the NAS and point Squeezebox Server at it, just make sure that the media path matches the library path for the songs and it should work. -- jmpage2 jmpage2's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=75581 ___ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
