| Tags | No tags attached. | ||||
| Fixed in build | |||||

Jiri, could you please test with a MTP device without drive letter. For MTP devices with drive letter it works. |
|
|
Note: I've tested with the Zen Sleek (no drive letter) and the artwork fails to display. |

This isn't supposed to work with any non-MSC device, since MM doesn't have a way of getting the artwork. We can introduce a new device plug-in function that would return artwork for a requested track, e.g. something like: function DEVICE_GetArtwork( const filename: string; const tempArtworkFilename: string; artworkFormat: integer): integer; This would be implemented for d_WMDM so that artwork would be retrieved from album objects (or .jpg file from track's folder). In case of iPhone, it would be from the internal DB, but note that particularly in case of iPhone it will probably require quite a significant effort, particularly to support the several older DB formats. At this moment we don't even know how to implement it for iOS5 (see http://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=3139#c31460). We could possibly implement an alternative approach and show Artwork at least for tracks synced by MM (for them we know their ID from MM desktop DB and so we can show their Artwork). |

The alternative approach (supplying library artwork for tracks synced by MM) implemented in build 1601. |
