I've done all the research, but still haven't found the solution to my problem... I have a *.jpg as album art in one of my folders. I named it album.jpg , and I copied it and named the copy folder.jpg (and Folder.jpg). I have the .jpg set in RR setup for album art. The file displays correctly in the Load window, but it doesn't show up as the background of the Menu screen, nor does it show up in the My Audio screen. In other words, it shows up on the LOAD screen (after hitting View to get it to show icons), but doesn't show up anywhere else. I have the latest RR version (10-31-05), and I have the latest Flashplayer installed (8.0.22.0). I made the folder.jpg visible (deleted the hidden/system one). I did all the suggestions in the MC1.0 thread for this problem, but nothing works still. The "time elapsed", track number, and total time things show up correctly on the Menu screen too, I just can't get album art to work! Any help?!

I didn't read the suggestions in the MC1.0 thread, but you cold try and convert the jpg's to "baseline standard jpgs" as I believe Flash has trouble reading those progressive jpgs.

I spent a lot of time sorting out this issue for myself. It sounds like it should work.

If you're still having problems .zip a copy of the music file with the folder.jpg in it and email it to me and I can see if it works or if I can see the problem.

OK, I made sure the Folder.jpg (and album.jpg to experiment) files were standard jpg encoded. Do they need to be a certain size? I've tried like 300x200, 300x300, 200x200, and a few other combos... Again, the album art shows up when I try to load the music:



After I load the folder, however, there's no hint of the album art:

post the jpg, maybe someone can debug it.,...

i suggest you try it on a different path (maybe for some reason you are running a long path which causes probs? not sure though....how is your current path?

Thanks for the help guys... The Path to that particular folder is C:\MP3s\Garth Brooks\Seven\ (the directory in which the songs in that album are located)... Here is the jpg (at http://www.tornadocentral.com/now/folder.jpg )

update your flash to flash 8 player, thats your problem !, either that or your not running the latest RR.. you can see if your running the latest RR buy opening up the main.skin and editing say the time to albumart, you should then see the path to your albumart if a picture is there.. if no path is shown then you know its your RR that needs updating. These are the only two things that could be wrong

Is this a real pic or a photoshopped one?



That's what I supposed to get from "Visual" buttom. I've downloaded Winamp 2.95 so I can see vis window on mp3 loading window. I'm afraid that Winamp vis window can't be embedded, can it?

Is there anyway to make that spedometer actually work like the real thing?

If your running FreeDrive and you have installed the stuff that came with the skin then if you are getting a gps signal the speedo will work :-) I have yet to ammend it for km

Current Flash Version: 8.0.22.0 (from http://www.macromedia.com/cfusion/kn...fm?id=tn_15507 )
Current RR version: 10-31-05.

I'm going to reinstall RR and see what happens. This can't be an issue of whether I have the wrong version of Flash player or RR, since both pieces of software are the most recent version.

Well, I should have just lived without Album Art... I uninstalled RoadRunner, deleted the directory, then reinstalled RoadRunner and the MC2.0 skin. Still no album art, and now the text of all music files and folders in the Audio_browser screen has the "strikethrough" property. In other words, there is a line running through each file and folder. In addition, if I hit VIEW to move to the Audio_browser1 screen, there is no text (no file/folder names) under each icon. This is driving me
