Thanks for the link.
It looks exactly what I have done, ie using MP3tag to tag the art to all the files rather than just the first one.
Its still defeating me which is really annoying as I don't like to give in  :embarrassed:

I've uploaded a zipped file that contains a folder with 2 folders and 2 mp3's in each. Basically the first album doesn't display any art whereas the second album does.

If anyone has a spare 10 minutes can they download it, unzip it and try it out in their car. I'd be much obliged to hear how they get on with it.

My Disco Pro has started to annoy me now, I recently took it out to update the files, reset the media, now every morning it seems to not find my hard disk and I have to unplug it and re-plug it in again. Grrr. It was perfect until then.

I only have the standard CMS but also find the art work hit and miss.  Tend to find that If I start the car and it was in the middle of playing a track I just get the question mark for album art (not all the time though).  Sometime after a few seconds the proper image appears, sometime you have to cycle to a different track and then back to the one that was playing.  Dead annoying.

I use MP3tag and Sanse MP3 art resizer.  I have noticed that you can add multiple art works to the mp3 files but have been super careful to ensure that there is only one image per mp3 file.

i was hoping that there maybe a firmware update that may have fixed this by now?  I'm going to ask about it at my next service.

That's pretty similar to me. I don't know if its just the Nav Pro that has the cover art or if they all have it, where you can click on the artwork then scroll through the albums like my posts below.
My album work shows correctly on this for every album but the problem lies when I actually go into that album, some don't show and others do with no obvious reason why.
