I had a few problems like this when I first got my touch. In every case it was a tagging problem. Probably teaching you to suck eggs but, here are some of the problems I came accross.. 1. Have you got each album in a seperate folder? I have mine as ATRIST/ALBUM/TITLE.flac or .mp3 I also have the album art embedded in each file and a copy saved as ALBUM.jpg in the same folder.It seems to make a difference (at least to me) if the Album Folder Name, The ALBUM TAG's and the ALBUM.jpg are "ALL" named the same. 2. Are you dead certain that all the tracks in an album have the same album art embedded? I have noticed if you have an odd one out it seems to pick up that one insted of the majority for some reason. 3. Are you sure thay are .jpg's I found a few .png's slipped in somehow and these didn't work. I just saved them as .jpg in my art package and they popped up in SBS no problem. I'm on 7.5.3 btw. I Hope you can sort it because I find it makes the touch much more pleasurable to use when you can see the album art, especialy from the older albums, makes me very nostalgic for the old LP sleeves ;-) -- cliver ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cliver's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=43289 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85257 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
