Help with media files

[pcb007]

Hi just come over to Android from after many years on Windows Mobile . I have created a folder on my sd card called my music and transferred my music folders across including the album Art pics, however the pictures dont show up in the music player, can some please point me in the right direction to get them to show. Thanks in advance Paul

Thanks for that, looks like thats where my problem is, i am having trouble installing HTC Sync so merely copied the files manually across

Does anyone know if its possible to transfer pictures and video to the device using HTCSync ?

I can imagine in 6months time the back will become loose if I have to constantly remove this to access the memory card ......

Connect up the USB cable. Pull down the notification thing from the top. Select 'USB connected'. Select 'Mount' to mount the internal card from your PC. Copy over files.

Another daft question....

Does anyone know if you need to place custom mp3/wav files into certain directories on the microSD card for them to be visible in the notification menus?

I remember seeing something in a forum that said you need to create a folder structure on a stock sd card.

Four Directories :

/sdcard/Alarms

/sdcard/Notifications

/sdcard/Ringtones

/sdcard/UI

Had a play around and saw some advice from xda-developer forums - enabled SD card notifications option in settings->sound and display, created following directories on sd card :

Media/Audio/alarms
Media/Audio/notifications
Media/Audio/ringtones

Files placed in notifications folder appeared in notifications - *.mp3, *.ogg and *.wav tested.

May also need a reboot somewhere in there aswell !
