djmodifyd Posted December 6, 2011 Report Share Posted December 6, 2011 I may be doing something wrong here. I cannot get MFT in my 2012 edge to display album artwork using a USB thumbdrive. Works just fine plugging my iphone in via USB and using it as an ipod. I have imbedded the .mp3 files with album artwork on my computer, and they show up on my computer. I am using a mac to do this, would this be causing an issue? any tips appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M. gracenotes is turned off. I checked the resolution, they are all 600x600, i'll change that and see if it does the trick, thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djmodifyd Posted December 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2011 well, I formatted the usb stick, adjusted all album artwork to 500x500, let the vehicle re-index the "new" drive and still no go. gracenote artwork and media management is turned off. this is annoying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djmodifyd Posted December 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 thanks for the replys guys. I got it working..... apparently MFT doesn't like the way a mac embeds album artwork (surprise...) I used a windows computer, and then media monkey to embed the artwork and it works just fine!

JohnPR Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 I used to get my album artwork from my USB stick - not all, but about 70% - but it hasn't worked since the dealership updated the system software a few weeks ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The latest version 2.11 fixed some stuff but also broke other stuff. If I were you, I would reboot the system by pulling fuse 29 or loading the Delayed Reboot program from a USB stick. or wait for it to reboot its self.

However, yesterday it went through another of its black-screen, then "Scheduled Maintenance" process. Is that the same as a reboot that you would get by pulling fuse 29?
