ID3 Tags - I Give Up!!

[Guest Sere83]

So i thought i'd put some tunes on my blade. I renamed all the tags as iD3 v2.3 in Mp3 Tag with album art embedded. The only Mp3 player I have found that displays the tags and the cover art correctly is Power Amp.

I wanted to use the New Honeycomb Music APK, that got leaked

I have literally tried everything, ID3v1 & ID3v2.3 together, ID3 v1 on it's own. The Different variations of ID3 v.2.3 on their own also ID3 V2.4 on it's own.

Every single time all the media players don't display any of the album art properly, usually just show 1 piece of cover art from one of the files for all different tunes and they don't read the tags properly, almost correct but some things are wrong. Like things are not in capitals letters for example even though it is written like that in the Tag.

I have also tried clearing the application data/data for all apps tested. This is the same for

Song Bird

Winamp

MSpot

Cubed

Honeycomb 3.0 APK

Player Pro

Stock Player

I am using Swedish Spring RLS4. Any one know why this is or can help? All I wanted to do was use the damn cover flow feature on the new honeycomb player.

UPDATE: I have solved this issue. You must put something in the album field to get embedded art to show and use ID3v1 & ID3V2.3 you may also need to use a small app called SDresscan from the market sometimes or restart after adding new songs, to clear the cached album art and tags off the SDcard.
