How can I force Songbird to embed album art?
So, I've done some research, but I'm still a little fuzzy about how Songbird does album art assignments. I want it to embed the album art in the mp3 tags, but it seems to be hit or miss
I read on another question here that if you use copy/paste or drag a file to one of the drag-art-here windows, it embeds the art, whereas if you use the replace button, it uses some sort of referencing scheme. This doesn't seem to be reliable, however, and I can't seem to embed album art on some albums (the art doesn't show up when I play the tracks in other media players or when I view them in Finder).
Would it be a problem that I'm trying to "drag" art for albums for which I've already "replace"d the art?

I’m curious.

Inappropriate?resize the album art to the standar 250x250
this work most of the time
i use "irfan view" for this matter -
Inappropriate?So does that mean that the album art can't be over 250x250? I like using the high-res album art. My MythTV install is on a high def TV and when it displays the art, I want it to look good. Is this not going to be supported (high res album art)?

I’m confused, hopeful

Inappropriate?Album Art and especially the fetching of Album Art is currently being worked on quite a bit.
I can only say, hang in there.
We'll get to it ;-)
Patience is a Virtue,
Tyler out!

My comment? Songbird is not yet perfect - but personally I love it. I got really fed up with WMP and iTunes, have now removed both from my computer ( at least - I think so but some of the icons in my music folder still show wmp logo). So, here's my three cheers for all the guys and gals working on Songbird. (Love the name!!)
