Simplify Album Art on your Meizu

http://louhi.kempele.fi/~skyostil/projects/albumart/

I managed to quickly get my album art for my rips and save it in the [album][artist].jpg format. Instant Album art.

Available for linux and win32 environments.


All you do is just load the folder /MUSIC/ into the program and change settings to retrieve from all sources and change the file format to %album%artist.jpg. And it will create the file in its current directory which the M6 recognizes.

Enjoy

Works great in linux. Should be the same in windows. Just remember to change the output format to %album%artist.jpg all should be well.

Just load the music directly from the player.. in my cast i open folder '/media/usbdisk/music'

Reload pictures and viola!

You can configure the image size to any of the preconfigured sizes (powers of 2, as it seems).
As the album art on the Miniplayer screen is (I think) 80×80, you can choose 128×128 or 256×256.

I have tested the software on both win32 and linux environments with success.

There are options to convert sizes accordingly. I'm happy to have shared this information to the community. Lord knows im a lazy SOB... so created the files manually wasn't going to fly..

This software is so user friendly... just follow the site watch the demo then download and experiment. If you ask me this should be a sticky.

Try saving the albumarts just as albumname.jpg (not albumnameartistname.jpg) in the same directory as the mp3s of the album, worked for me with the newest firmware.
