Hi, I'm wondering if any1 noticed one of the painful headache feature that the GS5 have (could just be TouchWiz), is that every song I transfered over to the phone, be that I place it in the Internal storage/Music, or /exSdCard, or /exSdCard/Music, or ANYWHERE, it always group into one album, which is annoying because I have separate artworks for each song, and since they all in one same album, they all display the same artwork from one of the random song. So if any1 know a work around this, or how to disable to auto album grouping, please let me know, oh, and I did tried google play music, it still does the same thing.

UPDATE: So far I figured out a work-around for this is to tag each song as its own album, but this method seem to very time consuming and not very effective in term of managing albums, so If any1 know any other work around or a feature to disable album grouping, please share!

P/S: I joined this forum about a week ago, and since then I'm loving it, this forum has a lot of useful information and discussions!

That might be the reason. Did you move them all to the same folder on the SD card?

hmm I've never seen any media player (that i can remember) that displayed art per track.

The only thing I can think of is to embed the art in to the ID3 tags, see if that works?

I moved them all into a Music folder that i created, and they all automatically got put into the same album called "Music"
