No iPod artwork / covert art

Tue Jan 17, 2006 3:22 pm
Hi there, I have searched and searched and tried lots of things but I still can\'t get any cover art to show on my iPod video 60gb (5g) - as far as I can see from other peoples posts this should work.

amaroK v1.3.8
I created initial iPod dirs using gtkpod 0.99.2 and libgpod 0.3.0

I can copy music to the ipod using gtkpod or amaroK fine. My covers are all set in amaroK o.k. (most from amazon, a few manual).

When I sync using amaroK it creates a iPod_Control/Artwork/ArtworkDB file but it seems to be constant size regardless of what I copy to iPod.

Any help appreciated...

ipod artwork is not implemented in the 1.3 series, this will be in amarok 1.4. you probably will also run into problems with a 5g ipod and 1.3: you won\'t be able to see more than 256 songs on your ipod when transferred with amarok.
sorry, this won\'t be fixed before 1.4.

ahhh, o.k. thanks! At least I can stop fiddling now trying to get it to work!

Will the SVN version work? (I realise this is dev and may be unstable etc.)

Thanks

I'm using 1.4.5 on gentoo with an 80g black iPod video and I'm getting no artwork on the iPod.  My cover art Database is up to date with no missing covers, yet when I synchronize the artwork over using the "Update Artwork" menu, it says "Updated Artwork for 630 tracks".  I then close Amarok, unmount the iPod and I have no artwork :(
