So Wes, the list on the left will that go back to an Artist list? As I said on my list it only goes back to album name.
If you edit the Album name to incorporate the Artist name, you can have both Artist & Album showing on the list, something like this...

I think there is a free version that has ads on but at least you can try it. Trust me you'll never bother again with CD's etc.

I may try Spotify, like to see what all the fuss is about. My daughters use it, they say its quite good.

I only use CD's at home, not in the car, all songs are stored on SD card.

Now the built in media player plays and shows everything fine except for the art, but I can view these through another app and they show fine, so can I ask what your art is named like before I try to convert them ?

Thanks

Btw do I need to create a music folder if starting again from scratch ?
Many new cars being built today with fancy inbuilt media devices as standard cannot always show the Album Art.

You can use your SD card as it is now with all your music stored, just download the MP3Tag program and load each Artist album in-turn and allow the program to search Amazon for the Album Art info. You then stored/embed the ID Tag to the album/song info on the SD card, this means the information is always there for when using the card in other devices.

If you use the app, you can perform the operation using the DD unit.

This may help.

Excellent news, is that the RunGrace android unit?

Seems the incredible low 90% sale price has somewhat stabilised, fluctuates from £135 to £150 (around 40% discount).

It will be very interesting to see what happens in the January Sales, especially when newer 2017 models arrive. Hopefully making way for the older discontinued products to make their way closer to the Sale Bin.

Would one of these be OK for an older guy that can just about find his way around a smart phone?

That is the WinCE unit HERE... the UI is very easy to use.

If you can use a Smartphone, then I would imagine you could operate a Windows CE 5.0 operating system quite easily.

Is the 64GB card a SDHC or a SDXC card?
