Title: Organizing: Keeping CD Audio + Scanned Booklet Images Together
Post by: Gl3nn on April 16, 2009, 09:30:37 pm

I'm sure there's a thread somewhere which covers a suggested or best practice for this, but I can't find it.  Can anyone point me to it?

Essentially, I'd like to scan and display several images of the CD booklet while the music is playing.  How is this done?

Thanks!

OK, after about 50 searches I found topics that addressed this.

If this was covered in a help file or wiki, I obviously missed it.

I once created a list of my cover art related replies/threads:

IMHO, "Artist - Album.jpg" works better than "Folder.jpg".

Some of the links provide detailed information of my "system". I have scanned, imported and tagged full cover art sets (= front, back, booklet pages, tray inlay, CD, etc) since 2004. I have views that can show the audio and image files together as album files and I use the images in slideshows during audio playback.

I have probably posted some newer similar replies but I don't have a list of them.

I did a search and quickly gathered some links to my newer cover art related replies:

Only a few of them are exactly on topic here, but I decided to post them anyway. They may be useful for others too.

Thanks, Alex.  That's a long list.  Thanks for all your patience in replying to these people.  I've added your post above at the bottom of the Wiki entry on cover art (http://wiki.jrmediacenter.com/index.php/Cover_Art).

And thanks from me too, Alex.  One of your messages did the trick for me.  Much appreciated.
