It is doable, period. The priority scheme you propose is backed with nothing other than edge cases, just as mine. They are equally valid concerns, and unless there is some reason to suspect your edge case is somehow "better" than my edge case one should err on the side of PC-independence. > > If it needs to be fixable on the player, wouldn't a much simpler > solution be a plugin you can "open with" that strips embedded album art > (or even allows the optional export of it)?

The day said plugin exists I'd agree. It doesn't today so we might as well talk about a plugin which reads my mind and fixes everything for me. I have no problem copying album art around with existing functionality. --soap Received on 2011-02-14 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
