Hey guys I've been trying to get the album art to display properly in the Google music app but I can't seem to get it to show certain covers, some albums work fine but others just won't work any ideas how to fix it?

Has anyone else had problems getting album art to display correctly in the HTC music app? Whenever play files that have an embedded album cover, the cover is totally corrupted (just a mass or garbled green/purple/yellow lines).
I added the covers via EasyTag, but I've also tried other tools too. I just can't get the album art to display. I found the following bug report, but it has no solution (tried eyeD3, I just get the same behaviour):

Anyone have any ideas?
had that on one albumart, just a black/white picture, looks somewhat like a qr-code from the market in a stretched version.
Just wondering, where can i get the native android music app on the hero? i've been trying to find a good, non-laggy music app for a long time now. The HTC one is laggy as it keeps trying to load album art when i scroll through tracks, this could be because im using class 2 SD card but thats still bad. is it possible to disable the album art loading? I've been using mixzing for a while and its the best substitute so far, good but not great. What are you guys using?
I think the native android music app should work best but i cant find it anywhere in the market, anyone know where to get it?
Personally i use tunewiki
use "3"
search "rockon" in market.
easily the best yet.
lovely UI too
honestly with the combo of the album art grabber app and the stock music player...its better than tunewiki mixzing and 3cubes
I would recomend MixZing. Works well for me.
Here is the .apk for Native Music Player. Confirmed working on Hero. It'll probably ask you to pick defaults for like every action in the app at first, just choose the option for the native player (obviously).
thanks for the apk! but when i push it it says: [INSTALL_PARSE_FAILED_UNEXPECTED_EXCEPTION]
im not sure why, is it because i have the HTC music app as well? i really want to try it! but lately i have been using 3 and it isnt bad, even with all the 3d animations its still pretty smooth surprisingly!

Thank you
I use these on the DX for album art. Makes the music galllery look much better. So far the 2 ive used dont work. Art Grabber finds art but it doesnt show it in the XOOM's music app.
Any suggestion?
i am having the same issues... some of the artwork shows and some doesnt and I have no idea why.
Its irritating
Same here tried album art grabber as well ... no luck I like the look of a nice music app with full albums .. lol

Same here with album art. Hopefully that will get fixed soon.
I just tried the headphones for the first time and my ear drums just got blown out. Very loud and I like it.
After you get album art with another app successfully, you need to go to Settings, Manage Apps, find the Music app and then Clear Data. These are off the top of my head instructions and can be cleaned up as I'm sure they aren't exact. Once you've cleared the data for the Music app, your newly downloaded album art should be present.

What's a good album art AP to use?
Album Art grabber is working fine for me (must to the clear data trick in settings).

This worked great!
I have dug out my LiveView after being relegated to a draw to see if things had improved since I last used it on ZTE Blade ages ago(I didnt even try it on my ARC S as heard bad things about ICS).
I seem to remeber I could view the music I was listening to along with album art etc on my LiveView. I have tried this with my XperiaT and it would appear to me that it is not compatible with the Walkman App, Is this the case or have people managed to get this to work.
I have managed to get a plugin working under Generic Emulation control but I dont get the album art or song titles.

Never seen album art on my LiveView unless it was some plugin.
U can try OpenLiveView its very good and handles more notifications like gmail and so on. Just u need to configure filters cause without it ull get all toast massage like connecting/disconnecting charger
Hi all,
As you probably know already, the HTC One resizes album art to a lower resolution when it's imported onto the phone. Is there any way around this? Maybe another way to import music? I use AirSync right now which functions through the doubleTwist app.
I like my album art to look really nice and clear and if you look closely at all on the HTC One, it's no where near as clear as on any iPhone with a retina display.
Any suggestions are welcome.
Thanks
bump
anybody?
