Cover.jpg - PLEASE add support for it!

I know importation of album art has been covered many times so please accept my apologies for starting yet another thread however there seems to be little discussion of the "cover.jpg" method for associating album tracks with the associated cover art imagery.
Placing a file called "cover.jpg" in each album directory is fairly common practice with many (most?) media servers and works perfectly well, consequently I have no intention of adding embedded cover art jpg's to every track in my library (10,000+ tracks) just so that my N85 can show me an album cover.
It would be so much easier for us users (you know, Nokia customers) if the S60 media player could identify the cover.jpg file that sits in every album directory I have so far synced over to my N85, and then import those cover.jpg files as the album art for each album. Also, the cover.jpg files should then NOT appear in my photo gallery.
Is this really so difficult to make happen??? Not supporting this feature seems to be the cause of so much aggravation for Nokia customers when transferring files to Nokia devices.
BTW, I'm not suggesting that embedded cover art should be ignored - if it's there then use it but when it's not present then also look for the cover.jpg file as an alternative source...

nokia are not going to bother with cover.jpg that can be loaded from each folder depending on what track you play. only SE do support that. i think embedded album art is waybetter than seperate jpgs in each folder.
The trouble is some people already have music collections with thousands of songs, and don't want to add a 30KB image to each song just because Nokia are too stupid/too lazy/too arrogant to implement a simple solution to what is very obviously a common problem. SE implemented the solution because it's not difficult and it's what their users want - why can't Nokia give users what they want for goodness sake?
I can put over 1500 tracks or ~150 albums on my N85, and if I add a 30-35KB jpg image to each and every track that's 52MB wasted rather than the 5MB it would take to store one album cover image with every album directory. It's not rocket science.
I don't disagree that supporting embedded album art is a handy feature, but it's embedded album art is certainly not common with those who have music collections dating back more than a few years, nor is it desirable for many people. Adding album art retrospectively to an entire music collection in order to view a picture on a Nokia ain't going to happen either - I'd rather buy a consumer-friendly SE phone next time.

Please add support for Camera RAW Canon PowerShot G2,
it may be ancient, but there are still a lot of G2s out there, and it's annoying to have a different workflow for pictures from them...

Can you please add support for Gmail's archive feature?

Can you please add support for Gmail's archive feature? I would like to be able to "archive" emails using the menu when I'm accessing my gmail account, reading and browsing emails. I would also like "archived" emails to be removed from the email listing once I tap the refresh option on the menu. Could you tell Blackberry to implement these features on the next update?

hello, you can do this in current versions already :))

HT201071 Please add support for Hasselblad CFV-50

I just replaced my Hasselblad CFV-16 with the CFV-50, and now I have bad redish view only of my files both in Preview and Aperture.
Please add support for the file format from CFV-50, it's not a all new Digital Back (it's out since severals years now).
We can still convert files into DNG using Hasseblad tools and made the DNG file reconized by Preview and Aperture, but would like to be able to manage my original RAW files from Hasselblad in Aperture like I was used to do

Please add support for MXF files created by Blackmagic Hyperdeck Studio

We have a Hyperdeck Studio that records DNxHD220 files in a MXF wrapper. Right now it is not possible to import them into Premiere CS5.5.
It would be great if Adobe would add support for those files.

Please add support for Lumix DMC-LX1

I've had this excellent camera for a few months and am frustrated I can't use its RAW files with Aperture.
At least I can use it with Lightroom and Photoshop CS2, but I want to use Aperture. I sincerely hope cameras are added to Aperture at least as quickly as Adobe can add them.

I doubt you will have much luck here. I wish support for my Konica Minolta A200 would be added but there is little hope now Konica Minolta have left the market.
One of Apple's main shortcomings in this area is their lack of RAW support. This will probally lead Adobe to have the upper hand with RAW processing as they support 100s more cameras than Apple do!

Please add support for Tiles

I have been looking on other lists and sites and this seems to be a big missing piece of both JSC and JSF -> the ability to template the layout of pages.
As a Struts developer, I find creating page templates in Tiles, them being able to reuse, inhertit from and tweak with only a few lines of XML in the tiles-def.xml and incredibly powerful and time saving tool. Yet apart form some clever us of prelude and coda in a few demo apps (Bookstore6 from the J2EE14 Tutorial), ther seems to be little support for this in either the IDE or the spec.
I realize that JSF is about components, but layout is just as important.
Any kind of page layout templating support would be appreciated - it doesn't have to be Tiles but it would be nice.
In the mean time, has anyone come up with workarounds for this?
M

JSF does support the use of Struts-Tiles, but Sun Java Studio Creator does not. I've tried using Tiles within Creator, but it will not allow me to modify the included JSP pages properly. For example, when I remove the html, body, and f:view tags from the page to be included, Creator automatically re-adds them, resulting in broken functionality.
The lack of templating support is rather distressing and is one reason I am holding off on using Creator to create production code. For now, it's more of a play thing.
Templating support is a must!

Please add support for JPEG Exchangeable Image File Format (EXIF)

It seems that now Adobe® Illustrator® can export only to the JPEG File Interchange Format (JFIF). We should have an option to produce the JPEG Exchangeable image file format (EXIF) as well (just like Photoshop does!). Why this is so important to me? I generally work under Illustrator and I often post my work on Behence. I work with 'sRGB IEC61966-2.1' color profile. When publishing I use *.jpg with embedded ICC Color Profile. But it looks like Behence doesn’t fully support the JPEG JFIF – for example it cannot read its icc data correctly. The effect is that my work looses its quality! The only option to produce the JPEG EXIF I have now is to: Export *.ai file to JPEG (under Adobe Illustrator) > go to Photoshop > Create new project > Paste the *.jpg > and Sava As JPEG with icc embedded. This guarantees my files are being processed correctly.
(JPEG) Formally, the EXIF and JFIF standards are incompatible. This is because both specify that their particular application segment (APP0 for JFIF, APP1 for Exif) must be the first in the image file. In practice, many programs and digital cameras produce files with both application segments included. This will not affect the image decoding for most decoders, but poorly designed JFIF or Exif parsers may not recognize the file properly. ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JPEG_File_Interchange_Format#Exif_comparison )
I’ve analyzed my files using JPEGsnoop 1.6.1 (an app by Calvin Hass, http://www.impulseadventure.com/photo/) and here is the result:

Please add support for using Slim Server with ITunes

I just purchased a SqueezeBox and it awesome! However, it uses Slim Server to stream music to it, and all the cool songs I purchased on Itunes are not available due to the DRM (I hate DRM!). I purchased these songs, they live on the Mac, and all I want to do is stream them to this slim device and listen to them. This should be allowed.
Thank you.
Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Apple has not to date licensed their DRM to anyone other than Morotola (for inclusion in a couple of phones), so it's not likely to happen anytime soon, if ever.
BTW, we're just your fellow users here. Feedback to Apple is best submitted through the feedback pages. For feedback on iTunes itself, use the Mac OS X feedback; the iTunes feedback is just at this point for suggesting new content to the iTunes Music Store.

I would strongly support that too!!!

Is it possible to add support for new database type in Data Modeler?

Hi,
I see that Data Modeler v.4 supports different versions of Oracle, DB2 and MS SQL. Is it possible to add support for a new database family,
PostgreSQL for example? I hoped that RDBMS Site editor can do it, but so far I don't see any possibility to add XML files with metadata for a new RDBMS.
I did it previously for PowerDesigner were it is possible to add and modify definitions for new relational databases.
Thank you,
Sergei

Hi, everything in the "Quick Reference" section should be commented out with ;
You should change those settings further down in the php.ini file.
Example:
error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED & ~E_STRICT
display_errors = Off
