Album Art

[im2radar]

Where is the art associated for my mp3's?I can view cover art in windows explorer and wmp 11,but cannot get artwork onto dvd(easy music dvd)unless I enter it manualy.Even when I try to view files in the browser as thumbnails,there is none to be seen.I can't/won't belive I have to do it manualy.Is there something I am missing?

Thanx in advance

I'm not quite sure what you're trying to accomplish here or what app you're using.

If you're trying to use album art as the image for the dvd then it depends on what app you're using.

If you are using the DVD Music Assistant ("easy music dvd?") then the only place to use it is as the background.You should be able to "add background image" on page 2.

If you are using Music Disc Creator then it is under Smart Objects,Background,Image.

Either way the actual art should be in the folder where your music is stored.I'm not sure if it will be the same as mine but my files are called AlbumArt {xxxxxxxx}.jpg.In either app I was able to see the thumbnails when I tried to add the background image.

I was trying to have a list (and album art)of each album,when you select an album to play ,the cover art would expand to fill the page (kinda like WMP,when you click on "Now Playing/show album art"and/or visulizations(optional).Just a thought on how to make the music DVD less static.I guess I could attach a slideshow?

Thanx again

You could do this using Music Disc Ceator.Either make seperate track lists for each album or use the smart menu album listing.Either way you can use your album art as the background for that dvd menu.
