Just installed this and wanted to clarify one more thing. I take it you will have to embed the art in the mp3 yourself for it to also show? As in it's not automatically there on every song?

Of course, embbeded art within the song is something either you make or download with it. This plugin is completely optional.

It will display the cover art from the file IF exists, otherwise it displays any existing (standard) cover art images.

I'll take a look in case multiple files with different cover art files exist.

Is this issue specific to MY setup. Come to think of it, I had the latest winamp installed and recently switched to 2.95 and a bunch of issues went away. I will have to look at this again.

I've updated the plugin/source on the first post, please try the new one (remember to re-register the new DLL).

It works now. Just tried it on my work desktop, and it flashes the picture of the first file on the list for a split second before it changes to the next song. I kinda like that because the first song in the list is an mp3 with the genre of music (that probably made no sence to most people here) but anyways I'll try it on my car pc after work. Thanks for the update.

It will "flash" with whatever is the "normal" cover art for the file (if it exists and just as if the plugin wasn't running), this is required so RR updates the image when it changes.

Sounds like a great plugin but for the idiots amongst us, what does this mean in English??

Quote:
1-Copy MP3ART.DLL to install location (of your choice -- DO NOT MOVE IT AFTER STEP 2!)
2-Regsvr32 MP3ART.DLL
3-Add: X,Mp3Art to menu.skin of desired skin

Easy install (change the paths to wherever you installed RR at):
-Unzip MP3ART.DLL from the zip file posted into C:\Program Files\Road Runner -Click Start->Run, enter CMD and hit OK
-Type in:
CD \Program Files\Road Runner <HIT ENTER>
regsvr32 mp3art.dll <HIT ENTER>
exit <HIT ENTER>

Open Notepad in windows, go into RR's skin folder, and find the menu.skin file, open it and add this line before the END line and save it:

X,Mp3Art

That's it.

I follow all the steps:

----------------
EASY INSTALL
(change the paths to wherever you installed RR at):
-Unzip MP3ART.DLL from the zip file posted into C:\Program Files\Road Runner -Click Start->Run, enter CMD and hit OK
-Type in:
CD \Program Files\Road Runner <HIT ENTER>

----------------

and I can't make it work. The artwork does not appear. I only have mp3 files with bmp and jpg artwork embedded. All my arkwork work with toaster, however I can not make it work in RR.

Any suggestions?? perhaps it is my configuration in rrconfig.exe??

What could it be??

Help please!!!
