Adding Album Art

[PKC]

I'm trying to add album art to an existing DVD music disc file. I read the tutorial but I can't seem to find the album image itself, nor do I know where to look for it. I know the art exists, because when I originally ripped the songs from the CDs, "gracenote" (whatever that is) found all the information online. All I get when I look for information ia a path to files on my hard drive. I realize I'm not explaining this very well. I'm at work on my laptop and my Creator 2010 is on my home PC. Hopefully somebody out there can decipher what it is I'm trying to say. Thanks!

I think there's a bit of confusion here

 

Gracenote is simply an online database of track name and artist for CDs (I don't think there's a DVD Audio version but I could be wrong)

 

However - it simply fills in track info and doesn't have the album art (that would be copyright material)

You may be correct about Gracenote ... I'm not really sure what that is. But on the Roxio Creator 2010 "Create a Music DVD" (or words to that effect) they have a tutorial that states that album art can be added to your project and it even calls it a "cool" benefit of the program. I fought with the thing till the wee hours of the morning and still couldn't make it work. Guess I need to get a life, huh? This sort of thing just makes me nuts when I can't figure it out.

Maybe if you provide details or the step in the tutorial where you are having a problem, someone can help you.

Thanks for sending the .pdf. Where I'm running into trouble is step #5. When I click on "browse" it takes me to files on my computer (my pictures, etc). I don't have the album art in my own files, I want to GET those images somewhere. I just don't know where to go from there. Thanks!
