album art

Post by junk67 » Mon Jan 21, 2008 2:41 am

Just a general question.

I have embedded album art into all my mp3's. However, there is also all the Windows folder based artwork

in each album folder. If this is the case, what will Twonky stream to the PS3? Is it looking at the embedded or the folder artwork? And, can I remove all the folder artwork?

Thanks for the help.

The PS3 displays the embedded art, so you can safely delete the windows folder stuff. However, if you play the files again with WMP they'll get created again!

Thanks for the reply.

I have learned to stay away from WMP. (I strictly use iTunes for music management.) The other thing I have found is that even though Vista Ultimate supports embedded art, the included media center does not seem to. I have not officially confirmed this, it is just something I have read. Once again not a big deal, because I only use WMC for my HDTV tuner.
