    I've got several thousand .flac and .mp3 files organized into artists/albums. Each album has an album cover art image file in it (mostly "folder.jpg"). But none of the music files have embedded images in the tags.

    I've not found a command line / batch tool to embed images into thousands of files. And besides - it's a waste of disk space.

    The audio player should be able to display the folder image if the file does not have an embedded image.

    I'm running the latest firmware (1.02.21).

    Thanks,
    Chris.

    Yeah, that's because I moved your post here from the Gen. 1 wishlist section where you posted it originally. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

    Thanks. So how does the Gen. 1 product handle MP3 album art? ? Does it need the image embedded in the MP3 metadata? Or does it display an image in the folder when playing the tracks?

    If it does the same thing as the WDTV Live - then I'd say this is a wish list for that product too - regardless of what product I have - in respect of displaying album cover art: all the products should act pretty much the same, right? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)
