iPod Classic cover sync issue [#14079]

Post by peterkeyzers »

Hi,

First time poster here, been using MM for a little while now, but have run into a problem when syncing with my iPod Classic. I've spent a few hours Googling, looking through the forums, but it's entirely possible that I missed something, so if so, apologies and please point me in the right direction!

I've recently upgraded my iPod Classic from the regular HDD to a 256GB SSD, which required an iPod restore when done. This went fine and I synced my music across, and it plays perfectly. However, it looks like only a single song from each album ends up having album artwork displayed when playing. It's also not always the first song on the album, although mostly is. The other songs end up playing fine, but just don't display the cover.

I've tried default iPod sync options, re-nuking the iPod, embedding artwork in each track, and none of it seems to make any difference. I've tried syncing just a few hundred files at a time, rather than all the music at once, but that also doesn't change anything.

At this stage, I'm out of ideas. If anyone can provide any advice, that would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Peter.

Which version of MediaMonkey did you use to sync?

Oops, forgot that one - 4.1.15, the latest. I also tried downgrading to 4.1.13, but that didn't seem to help.

Cheers,

Peter.

I suggest capturing sync in a debug log (step 4b) and to attach the log to a Support Ticket: http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewto ... ?f=12&t=69
