Album Art

Does SageTV display the album art from within a songs tag or from a folder within Sage? Here is my issue, I have many .mp3's but not much album art. I'm using media monkey to look up album art when I'm asked to write to tag or to a folder.Which?
Just curious because I have artwork coming up for certain songs that are not included with the tag.

Yes.

Page 84 of the v6.1 PDF manual gives info about where SageTV looks for album art: as tags in the files or as separate image files.

If you add or change art after the music has been imported, you might have to reimport the music to get new art recognized.

Directions don't seem to work for me

I followed the steps in the manual by adding a file called "folder.jpg" in each folder where the music for each artist is located. Sage TV (v6.1) recognizes 2 or 3, but for the rest it uses Christopher Cross's album cover which makes no sense at all.

Did you reimport the music, or only do a library rescan?

Does your music have ID3 tags to tag each song's actual album? In SageTV, what does it say the album is for the songs with the wrong album art? The art for the first song on an album is used as the art for every song on the album.
