How to get album art on your iPod nano. Read this.

I have had problems getting artowrk on my nano from my computer but it was only because I didnt have USB 2.0 outlets on my computer. I used a different computer that had USB 2.0 and it worked fine. Just click the little button under your sources in iTunes that says "Show or hide song artwork and video viewer" so it opens and then drag the picture you want into that and it will go on your iPod nano artwork. Remember to have the artwork for your nano enabled though. To get it enabled just click the little icon on the bottom right of iTunes that looks like a iPod nano and click the music tab and then make sure the "Enable artowkr for your iPod nano" box is checked. If you have any other questions just comment this.

I have 2.0 USB on my laptop and pc and it still does not work. Just ot really worried about artwork ecause I don't look at it while it is playing.......

*** How to get Album Art on your iPod Nano: ANSWERED!

I'll start by saying that my iPod Nano would not display ANY album art at all, even though it did in iTunes. I just added 180 albums to my iPod, and they all showed up, perfectly. Here's how I did it:
1) Move all the songs you want on your iPod into the iTunes music library. (Open iTunes, and drag the files over the "LIBRARY" catagory)
2) Click Music, under the LIBRARY heading.
3) Add the artwork to each song/album. I used "iTunes Art Importer". It's a great program, and is really easy to use/download.
4) Connect your iPod to your computer.
5) Remove any songs you have on the iPod.
6) Go to the Music tab, in the iPod control panel.
7) Sync all music files/playlists from your iTunes library.
If you did this correctly, all the album art you added in your iTunes library should display on your iPod. Be sure to have "Display Album Art on this iPod" checked off.

How to get album art to appear on nano

Well, I have all of my songs in iTunes with album artwork, yet when I sync'd a songlist to the nano and play any song, no album art shows up. None. Zero.
This should be as easy as transferring the songs.
On the itunes window, it lists that 0 photos are on the nano. I even tried syncing a small iphoto library of 16 photos to it. The photos appear, yet NONE of the album art shows up for ANY of my songs.
Respectfully requesting a clue.

Thanks to all who've replied so far. When I get home to both my home Mac and the Nano I will try each suggestion step by step.
On the off chance I stopped by our local Apple store to ask a rep about it. His reply was "only album art that will show on the nano will be from songs you've purchased through the iTunes Music Store." I asked him to repeat that just to make sure I understood him.
I said so, all of the CDs I have now ripped into iTunes, and scanned artwork from the covers and sync'd in iTunes - will NOT show up on my nano when I sync the nano to my iTunes library. He said that's correct.
I think this guy is full of it. But then that's just my opinion.
Can anyone confirm that they have artwork showing on a Nano that was NOT downloaded from the iTunes music store? Rather - like most of us - ripped from a CD, artwork gracefully found from amazon and dragged to the iTunes window?
Thanks for all the help so far gang. Will update in about 6 hours when I get home.
Oh - BTW, through out all this the nano reported 0 photos until I uploaded about 16 photos from the iPhoto library just to make sure that was working properly. It still reports 640 songs, 16 photos, capacity 3.7 Gb, Available 290 Mb, and version 1.0, serial # ###, Model PA005LL

How do you put pictures on your ipod nano?? i was told to go to edit then click prefereces but after that i am completly lost.

Put all the pictures you want to put on your ipod in one folder on your computer. Then, once you're in itunes, click on your ipod (under the devices section). Once you've done this, click on photos at the top and click on the box beside Sync Photos (so there's a tick in the box). It'll say 'sync photos from .......' and then a drop down bar. In the drop down bar it will probably say my pictures or something, click on that. Then click selected folders (unless you want to put all of your pics on) and then tick the folder you want to put on your ipod. Finally, click sync (bottom right hand corner) - it'll load and then your done.

How to get album art on iPod?

How do you get a picture of the front of an album to come up on your iPod when you play that album? The computer I am loading the songs onto it with has no internet connection, however I do have another computer with iTunes also that does have a web connection (but no firewire, so I can't use it to upload the songs). Anyway, is there somewhere I can download the art for all the albums in my collection and then transfer that to the iTunes on my offline PC and get it to put that album art on the iPod 5G?
Thanks a lot in advance.

Here are a couple of methods.
First off, make sure you have "show album art" enabled in iPod options.  Go to Google Image Search and type in the artist/album name and click on search images.   Double click on a picture you like, then at the top of that page click on "see full size image".   When you get that image, simply copy/paste it into the space for album artwork in iTunes.   Make sure you select the album in the browser of iTunes before you copy/paste.   You'd be surprised what Google Images can bring up. There are literally millions, and even obscure album artwork can be found.
In the unlikely event that Google can’t find an image, you can also get artwork from Amazon.
If you’re happy using images from Amazon, and don’t want to copy/paste, then iTunes Art Importer is a nice free program to do it for you.
"however I do have another computer with iTunes also that does have a web connection (but no firewire, so I can't use it to upload the songs)"
Doesn't matter anyway since the iPod 5th gen (video) cannot transfer songs etc via firewire only USB.

How to get Album art to Stick

I would love to be able to have the album art stay on the display (in the full screen mode) for more than a few seconds.
Does anyone know of a way to do this?
Thanks,
Greg

You might try using one of Dougs apple scripts, to extract the album art from your iTunes library into a folder. Once you have done this you can introduce them as a photo album in the advanced menu of iTunes, and then select them for your screensaver on the Apple TV.

Best way for getting album art into iTunes/iPod?

First of all, when you pull the track listing down from Gracenote when importing CDs, does the album art come with it? I don't see any art. And then if not, what is the best source for getting a low resolution digital file for each CD imported and how do you make sure it will make it to your iPod from iTunes? Is there any easy or streamlined process? Also, do the low resolution files add up for each song and take up hard-drive space? Thanks for any input.
Mac Mini Mac OS X (10.4.3)

click
on it on drag it to the desktop, then into the album
art box of iTunes.
I believe that copying directly into the iTunes box
will use more space on your HD than going via the
desktop.
It's the other way round.
If you copy it to your Desktop then it takes space there and if you then copy it to iTunes it gets added to the music file making that bigger.
Of course, if you delete it from the Desktop and empty the Trash then you won't have it taking space.
Here's a useful app for working out where all your space is going: Disk Inventory X

Problem: How to get album art shown on nokia 6120 ...

Hi guys, i need help once again, how can i get the album art on my 6120 classic player? any advices any ideas? i really want to get the art there since it was one of the main reasons i bought the phone, i mean the good looks of its music player, thanks in advance once again for your advices

I just discovered that the best and possibly only way to get your album artwork to display on your nokia is to have the album artwork present in your iTunes album cover disply before trying to convert them to your phone.
Im not sure if a similar process would work for other media players. Its as simple as copying the image from windows explorer images into your album artwork box in iTunes and then importing your files again.
Good Luck, hope this works for you

Tutorial: How to get DVD's on your iPod

This tutorial is intended for the serious hobbyist who already have a collection of home videos on DVD. The tutorial shows how to get home DVD's onto your iPod in professional quality (Note 1) by:
- using H.264 and AAC, and
- avoiding intermidate transcoding steps
Software required (Note 2):
- DVD Decrypter (free)
- BeLight with VOB plugin (free)
- QuickTime Pro 7.0.3 ($30) with MPEG-2 plugin ($20)
Overview:
1 - DVD -> .vob Using DVD Decrypter (minutes)
2 - .vob -> .wav Using BeLight (minutes)
3 - .vob + .wav -> .m4v Using QuickTime (hours)
Step 1:
Insert DVD and launch DVD Decrypter
First time only:
Mode - IFO
Tools - Settings - IFO Mode - On Startup Enable Stream Processing + Options File Splitting None
DVD Decrypter will scan the DVD and automatically select the longest title in the Input tab.
Often there is more information on a DVD than you want on your iPod and DVD Decrypter allows you to select the video and audio streams you want to transfer. Furthermore it combines the information into one big .vob file, allowing QuickTime and BeLight to process this information directly.
Click on the Stream Processing tab and deselect the streams you don't want. (Note 3)
Set the destination to an empty folder you will be using for preparing the iPod movie.
Click DVD -> harddisk icon and wait for DVD Decrypter to complete
Exit DVD Decrypter
Step 2:
Launch BeLight
Select the .vob file as input
Click on the WAV/PCM tab and select 16 Bits Stereo Wave.
In case the audio stream is multi channel surround sound BeLight will down mix it to 2 channels.
Click Start and wait for BeLight to finish
Exit BeLight
Step 3:
Launch QuickTime
Open the .vob file (Note 4)
Open .wav file
Edit - Select All
Edit - Copy
Back in the window with the video
Ensure play position is at the beginning of the video
Edit - Add to movie
File - Export - Movie to MPEG-4 (Note 5)
Use most recent settings, except for the first time (Note 6)
Set extension of the file name to .m4v
Click OK to start export
This will take a long time, typical 1 hour for each 10 minutes on a 3 GHz Pentium IV machine.
Finalising:
Use QuickTime to boilerplate the movie.
Window - Show Movie Properties to add info like Title, Director and Producer
View - Set Poster to set frame as poster for movie (This will show up on the icon in iTunes)
You can even choose to add a still picture to the end of the movie and use that as poster.
Add the file to iTunes and it will show up under videos.

ENJOY!

Note 1:
Being on a Windows platform I have tried Videora iPod converter, PQ DVD Converter, Cucusoft and the tutorial based on DVDx and Xilisoft, but they all have one or more severe shortcomings, such as audio being out of sync, wrong proportions, mediocre picture quality.
Note 2:
DVD Decrypter can be obtained from a number of locations on the internet. Google for DVD Decrypter to obtain a suitable location for download. In this tutorial the version of the software used was v3.5.4.0.
BeSweet can also be obtained from a number of locations on the internet. Google for BeSweet to obtain a suitable location for download. In this tutorial the following software was downloaded from http://dspguru.doom9.net/
- BeSweet v1.4
- BeLight
- VOBInput.dll v1.3 plugin
QuickTime 7.0.3 can be obtained from http://www.apple.com/quicktime/win.html
The MPEG-2 playback plugin is available here http://www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2/

----------------------------------------------------------
Note 3:
If you are new to DVD's here's a short description of what you may find on a DVD.
When using Windows Explorer to examine the files on a DVD you will typically find at least the folders:
AUDIO_TS
VIDEO_TS
AUDIO_TS is normally empty but VIDEO_TS holds a number of files, all with extensions like:
.IFO - Information file
.BUP - Backup of information file
.VOB - Video Object
A VOB contains streams of video, audio and subtitles. It may even optionally hold
- multiple video streams - known as angles,
- multiple audio tracks - different languages or formats (DTS/Dolby Digital/MPEG/PCM), and
- multiple subtitles - in different languages.
There can be several titles on a DVD, named VTS_01, VTS_02, VTS_03 etc.
Since a VOB can be quite large they are split into individual files each less than 1 GB in size. E.g. if VTS_01 is more than 3 GB it is split into files named:
VTS010.VOB
VTS011.VOB
VTS012.VOB
VTS013.VOB
Note 4:
QuickTime can also read .vob files directly from the DVD, however the DVD drive will spin contantly during the export so in order to spare it it is better first to extract the DVD to the harddisk. Having the DVD moved to harddisk has additional advantages in that multiple VOB files are concatenated into one file.
Note 5:
Due to a bug in QuickTime 7.0.3 the Movie to iPod (320x240) export setting do not work when video is MPEG-2. What happens is that QuickTime will start exporting the movie and update the status until it reached 17%. At this point QuickTime will chrash. Once Apple has fixed this issue you don't have to manually set all the correct options as described in note 6. Then you can simply select the Movie to iPod (320x240) option directly.
Note 6:
Video Settings
MPEG4
H.264
Bitrate: 622 kbps (Note 7)
Pictures: Same as source
Sync: Same as pictures
320 x 240 if 4:3 or 320 x 180 if 16:9
Advanced
Deselect Main
Select Baseline
Select fastest (Highest quality setting incompatible with iPod)
Audio Settings
AAC-LC (Music)
128 kbps
Optimal
44.1 kHz
Stereo
Click OK to accept advanced settings
Click OK to accept settings
Note 7:
A video rate of 622 kbps results in 750 kbps when audio is 128 kbps and is the setting used by QuickTime when selecting the internal Movie to iPod export option. The iPod can handle 768 kbps video + 160 kbps audio so the video bitrate can be raised to say 750 kbps. However the quality difference between a video rate of 622 kbps and 750 kbps is marginal.
I have played ipod videos encoded at 750 kbps video and 160 kbps audio without experiencing problems. However be warned that if you movie contains a lot of action this will generate peaks in the video rate. Whether these peaks will cause stuttering by exceeding 768 kbps when using a setting of 750 kbps I don't know and I have not yet seen enough footage to safely recommend 750 kbps. However personally I will be using 750 kbps and report back if I experience any problems.
Short videos in iTunes Music Store use 622 kbps video rate (Michael Jackson Billie Jean and Bad, Pixar For the Birds). Longer videos used 570 kbps video rate (Michael Jackson Thriller, ABC - Lost).
