Is it as simple as copying the JPeg file and pasting it under settings, or do you somehow store the album cover in the folders from which you link the library?

Of course you saw this topic : http://www.phasure.com/index.php?topic=67.0But specifically, the picture below shows that the folder.jpg is in the folder of the album itself ("Billy Cobham - The Best Of", in this case). There are variations though. See referred to link above. If it's not clear, just ask away. |

Nearly there with this  I have album tracks stored in a folder together with the album cover stored as folder.jpg. Now, how do I get the picture into XXhighend. I can see under settings that there is a box labelled picture folder containing "folder.jpg" - should I be doing something with this. Cheers Chris |

This should happen automatically, Windows defaults to hiding known file extentions(.jpg for example). So it already knows that it is a .jpg file, just call your coverart 'folder' without the .jpg (Windows is seeing folder.jpg.jpg). Then when you load up a track from that location you will see the picture too! I hope that's clear.

Thanks for the suggestion Jack. Nothing happens with or without the .jpg extension  It's possible this is related to another issue that was left on the back burner, whereby I cant drag and drop files into XXHighend. http://www.phasure.com/index.php?topic=131.0 |

What makes you think that you've got a monopoly on all the problems! I don't normally drag & drop, I prefer to use the library button. However I just tried, there is for me a short delay between 'no entry' & acceptance of the track. Is is worth hovering over XX keeping your finger on the mouse button for 2 or 3 seconds & see if the cursor changes before letting go? On the coverart thing, my jpg's average out at about 10kb, yours not too big perhaps?(straw clutching!)

I love a bit of straw clutching, but no luck I'm afraid. I hovered with music files for over a minute, but still no entry  . Regarding file size, I had given this no thought at all, but mine turns out to be a paltry 3.15Kb. Cheers Chris |

Humour me, does your audio folder look like this...when you open an album, on the right you get a bunch of tracks and a coverart folder, click on it as I have and look at the info right at the bottom next to the picture. It says folder not folder.jpg If you're the same you should be ok!? Otherwise I'll leave you to the maestro!

Files look just like yours - my file is called "folder". If I click on properties it shows it to be a jpeg 124x124 pixels. What is strange is if I double click on it, it says 'file cannot be opened'. This is strange cause the picture shows on the front of the folder. |

Strange indeed, your OS seems a little over protective! Can you load it into PAINT & if so re-save it as a .jpg called folder? Perhaps it is in a different format that you have simply renamed .jpg?

This is strange cause the picture shows on the front of the folder. Hi Chris, I have seen that problem elswhere..... your folder file probably has the extention "jpeg" instead of "jpg". The only way to get that changed properly is to have you Windows show all extentions (exe, dll, txt, and so forth). Then it is simple to change the file with a proper extension. Or XX should not be so critical to the file name... Computers...once they work okay then I love them but when they don't... Bert |

I was just working on a screencopy of this. It's the top choice, in english something like Hide extensions for known file types. It should be UNchecked. Just for your conveniency so you can see how it's acually called. You'll see a possible folder.jpg.jpg too then.
You can try this for your current problem folder to start with. Later, you can do it with the top most folder (and then hope all subfolders inherit the setting; if not, that's another setting somewhere ...).
