I have a different GoGear model (6330), but the same problem. So the solution I found may work for you, too. In my case using WMP or Rhapsody, album art was being placed in a folder on the device called Albums, when it needs to be under Music in the same folder as the album it goes with. Album art files should always be called "Album Art.jpg" and are 170 x 170 pixels. They can be manually copied or moved to the correct location by just opening the GoGear as a "drive" in Windows Explorer. Hope this helps!

The music file has to have the album art properly encrypted, or the GoGear will always display this default image. Make sure you are downloading from a source that properly codes the album art - you can check on whether the display will appear how you like by first looking at the song in Windows Media Player in album view - if WMP displays the correct art, then you should be ok.

    o.k., but how do you properly encode the album art? im trying to figure out how, but all i can find are solutions that don't work on my mp3 player or other people having the same problem that also can't figure it out.

Have you tried manually adding the album art? Unless you copy a picture, right click on the album art and then click paste album art in windows media player, it doesn't even show up on itunes. Once you have pasted the album art, it is then embedded into the file. Use a program like iTunes, Windows Media Player, or Phillips Songbird to then sync it.

It should work, but it can be annoying and glitchy.

How can I upload album art onto a philips gogear vibe for all my artists? I have album art inside my folders and i had itunes embed the art into the files when i uploaded them; however the art only shows...
There are 3 possible ways in getting the album art for your music album.
  1. Album art may be obtained from the online Music CD database that Windows Media Player uses.
    Note: Not all music albums have album art available in the online CD database.
  2. From the online music store where you purchased your songs or albums, the album art may be downloaded along with your purchase.
  3. You may also create your own album art by transferring your favorite jpg photo into the selected album folder and rename it to Album Art.jpg.
To download album art from the online database and transfer to the player.
  1. Make sure that your computer is connected to the Internet.
  2. Launch Windows Media Player.
  3. Go to Tools> Options> Player.
  4. Make sure the "Enable picture support for devices" check box is selected.
  5. Click the Apply, then the OK buttons.
  6. Select the "RIP" tab on the task menu bar.
  7. Insert your music CD into the CD drive of your computer. The Windows Media Player will take a few seconds to show the content of the CD on the display.
  8. Click "Find Album Info". The Player accesses the database hosted by WindowsMedia.com and displays information about the album in the Album Information pane. The album art will be shown if available.(Note: For some music CD, album art may not be found in any of the online database.)
  9. Click Finish to update all the information about your album and show it in the Rip pane.
  10. Connect your Device to the computer.
  11. Select the tracks that you would like to rip by clicking in the check b ox next to the track.
  12. Click the Rip music button to start ripping the music CD.
  13. Once the tracks are finished being ripped to the library, go to the Media library and select the songs that you have just ripped.
  14. Add them to the sync list and transfer them into your Device. The album art will be transferred along with those selected songs.
  15. Disconnect the Device from your computer.
  16. Make sure that the option in your Device has been selected to display the album art on the device, at Settings-> Album art.

To create your own album art and transfer it to the Device
  1. In Windows Media Player , right click on the song you want to update the album art of.
  2. Select "Advanced Tag Editor" option.
  3. In the screen that pops up , select the "Pictures" tab.
  4. Use the drop down list to make sure that the type of picture you add is the Cover (front).
  5. Click on "Add" to associate a picture as the Album art for the song and all the songs in that album.
  6. Add this (and other songs from the same album) to the sync list and transfer them into your Device. The album art will be transferred along with those selected songs.
  7. Disconnect the Device from your computer.
  8. Make sure that the option in your Device has been selected to display the album art on the device, at Settings-> Album art.

Hope this information helps. If it does, please do not forget to give me a rating and a comment.

Taking pictures on the cover of an album on an iPod Touch
<p>Music files can be embedded with album art for display on MP3 players. Since most files have an album cover, this without them would be when a device likes the iPod Touch. Apple iTunes users can add or delete album covers. There is no way to change the album art through the device itself. The addition of cover, you have an easier time choosing the album from a list. <br /> <p><br /> <p>1. Open iTunes. <br /> <p><br /> <p>2. Go to your "Library". <br /> <p><br /> <p>3. Highlight the song or songs you want to add album art. <br /> <p><br /> <p>4. Right-click and choose a song "Get Info". <br /> <p><br /> <p>5. Select the "Artwork" tab. Here you can add or remove the album art embedded into the file or files. Add an image, click "Add" and navigate to the image of your choice to find. Click "OK" when finished. <br /> <p><br /> <p>6.

I put the disc in to install the Philips GoGear Mp3 4gb video player and my Norton tells me their is a trojan on the disk, to remove it then remove the virus from my computer...... Why is that? It worked...
It could be that there is a Virus in the CD.. In that case I'd suggest that you download all the software from Philips support site.

Here is the link:
