[SOLVED] Help with Music Library

[brinith]

I have around 60 songs that have different cover art, yet when I add it to my S4, it only takes one of the album art. I want it to show each individual cover art for each mp3. Any ideas how to do this. First time using Android.

Does each MP3 file have album art properly associated with it? Easiest way to do this is to attach it using something like Windows Media Player or iTunes, then copy the file over to your phone.

If you want an app on your phone that can reassign album art, you could use something like Album Art Grabber.

Yes, but sometimes you need to reattach it. You can find the album art on the web, download it to your computer, then use Windows Media Player to attach that album art to the music file. Then see if it reads corretly.

I just finished replacing all the cover art in iTunes (was easier for me), but also some in Windows Media Player to try it out. I synced it using Kies, but in Google Play Music, it gets listed all under one album because of the unknown artist/album. I think this is what is making it take one of the photos and using it for the rest. The problem is that most of them are anime songs and tracks (shoutout to all the anime lovers out there) and I list them from the anime rather than the actual band and name. What can I do about this?

Since the music files you're talking about aren't from actual albums, you might just want to edit the ID3 tags yourself using a program like MediaMonkey (MediaMonkey ? Free Media Jukebox, Music Manager, CD Ripper & Converter). If the tag itself is edited to your specifications, then I think Google Music will read it the way you want it to.

I finally got it to work. I used the program mp3tag and made each of them a separate album named after their filenames. This let me use a different image for all files.
