How does WMP identify songs and albums? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/post-1-1047683561.gif)
One of my buddies little sister put out an album even, and it can identify everything but the album art. |

Album art is probably missing because the label (or whoever submitted the album to whoever WMP uses for lookups) never submitted the cover art. |

When you install wmp there is an option to automatically look up album data via cddb, or similar service, if you check ok then it does it automatically, if not u can right click and look it up.
If you get a brand new album then it may not find it. |

The only disc so far that has totally fooled it is from one of my colleagues in Germany, he plays in a band that covers 50's American rock. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) They do a pretty good Elvis.
It's also not doing so good on the album art from a lot of my smaller name Canadian artist discs. Colin James' Greatest Hits kinda surprised me. I take it he wasn't too popular down there? |
