Another Album Art / Wallpaper question

[piller]

I'm trying to get album art to work, and maybe I'm missing something.

I have FLAC files, tagged with MP3tag. I have the image files embedded in the FLACs.

I have an i7 and just upgraded to firmware 1.17.

I have the Wallpaper setting in the Display menu set to Album Art.

And yet I see nothing. No matter what option I choose in the Display menu (User Defined, etc), my screen just always has a black background with the standard album name text, etc, on it.

Is there something I'm doing obviously wrong? Or does FLAC or this firmware not support album art?

Thank you!

Im fairly certain album art only works on mp3 files. I havn't gotten art to work with flac or ogg files, dunno about wma files.

Freeware AudioShell supports FLAC 1.1.3 style picture album art embedded tags, also flac album art support in softpointe’s Tag & Rename.

I thought Piller was trying to get flac art to work in the i7. I used mp3tag to add album work to flac and have gotten it to show only in windows. The only problem is that the i7 does not recognize it.

rolie, You are right. I normally don't use flac files on i7 other than a few tests. I tried various ways this morning and the AA feature does not work on my device with 1.17 version :/

Thanks for everyone's input. I'm having the same problem with OGG. I guess we're just stuck without album art and tag support (OGG only) until another firmware update comes out, if ever.

Bummer...
