Hi all,
As you probably know already, the HTC One resizes album art to a lower resolution when it's imported onto the phone. Is there any way around this? Maybe another way to import music? I use AirSync right now which functions through the doubleTwist app.
I like my album art to look really nice and clear and if you look closely at all on the HTC One, it's no where near as clear as on any iPhone with a retina display.
Any suggestions are welcome.
Thanks
bump
anybody?

Hi all,
I recieved my new touch diamond today (really impressive exept for the battery)
Anyway, I wanted to add an album to the existing ones. The thing is that now, I can't brows threw the albums (iphone way). I have to enter in the library and choose an album. If I scroll up and down, it changes the tracks and does not switch between the albums.
Any ideas to get the iphone like browser back?
Thanks
Mine is the same way. Only i had some songs on the internal storage, then i updated to 1.37. Now it shows those songs in the flip, like ipod, but others i add do not show up. I have to go into library to see them.
I have the same thing. Never figured it out! I think it may only function like that if All Songs are selected and Shuffle is on.
But even that only seems to work occasionally...
I have the same. The touch flow player is just complete disfunctional crap. Dont even bother trying to get it to work because it wont. Your either one of those people which get it working straight away or one that wont ever get it to work. Its useless. Use mediaplayer instead, atleast that works. Its better too as it actually has a volume slider which the touchflow player doesnt which is annoing because that way you have to change your volume all the time and change it back again which I think is way to much trouble.
I agree. I've given up on it and have forked out for Pocket Player 3.
Audiobooster also leaves me with no bass so I can't use that anymore.
It's a real shame HTC have messed thing up so badly as I really liked the old AudioManager player.
Luckily the Diamond battery doesn't last long enough for me to get that pissed off with its functionality!
there's a wide misconception that the phone flicks through like iphone cover flow. it doesn't. what it does is flick through your current album selection or playlist. when we got the phone it looked like cover flow because there were a selection of tracks in one initial list all with different art.

This is not a bug, so why fix it ?
This is just browsing thru your "Playing Now" in stead of browsing thru an album.
If you want functionality like an iPhone, by an iPhone

what no way i'll stick with this functionality. The thing i that they sold it as an album browser (just read all the pre tests) and it would be easyer if it was in fact an album browser, keeping you from having to entre the library each time.
I have to agree, it was definitely positioned as if it performed like cover flow. In no videos or presentations I've seen does it say "look you can see the cover art" - which is essentially all we're getting unless you play all (and then all your tracks are in alpha order and not album or artist order).
Essentially it works but it was a bit naughty of HTC to position it as something it clearly is not.
I can live with it - a bigger issue for me is that my fave photo album never sticks!
In the user guide P68, they say that you can brows threw albums or songs...
And they would be right, you click library first and.... browse through albums or songs. There is no mechanic in the touch-flow music in order to browse albums by flicking and then it showing you the list of songs for that album. I'm sure it's possible but it hasn't been coded in that way.
Hi, and sorry for my english
I put some music albums on my HTC Diamond.
I don't understand how to scroll albums in touch flow.
If the actual album has 15 songs, I have to scroll 15 times to go to the next album !
Is it normal ?
Why they don't do something like :
Vertical scroll = Change album
Horizontal scoll = Change song
Thanks for your reply
because its HTC!
I know, it makes me sick to my stomach to see how slick the iPhone coverflo thing works when picking albums. Theres no reason at all why this cannot be pulled off with the Diamond.

True, could have been easier but you can still select a certain album when you press 'library' and go to albums there.
I'm glad it wasn't only me
It seems that once you have drilled down to track level, you can't go back 'up' to album view again in the main window - surely this was a mistake on behalf on HTC? left out a bit of code?
Double tap to change to next album
I found that if I double-tap (quickly) the up or down arrow it will change to the next album.
Some albums have a lot of songs and it doesn't always change to the next/previous album, but often it works.
My new problem is that sometimes when I open up the Music I don't see the other albums in the graphic windows - it only shows 1 album (square image) instead of the multiple album pics (titled image).
this is an item soooo much discussed..
I don't understand HTC doesn't do anything to make it work...
Do they follow this forum? anyone knows?

Hi,
Anyone know application like HTC Album but better?
An application that can view IMAGES and VIDEOS .. but it is finger friendly, easy to operate (zoom, delete, go back).
HTC Album is ok, but it could not view videos ... and sometimes very hard to zoom (does it really work???).
Thanks.
PocketCM image viewer IMO is the best still image viewer, unfortunately will not preview videos
I used to use HTC album, tried PocketCM picture viewer and liked it, but found it too hard to navigate. It would zoom in when I didn't want it to, change pictures accidently. Now I use A_C's S2V, really like it, quick and easy to zoom in and out with the D-pad.
Hi,
use resco photo explorer
I agree, in my opinion, S2V is the best software to view still images.
I'm not sure if there are any softwares out there made to view still images and videos. I think it's one or the other.
I use right now HTC Album 2 with SJ's Full Player plugin so I can play video directly within. Not the greatest but it will do for now.
I think the best solution is using resco photo explorer
Eyephoto's pretty good too, no video though...
Kinoma Play
I've heard good things about Kinoma Play, http://kinoma.com/play/
Being commercialware, I have yet to try it.
how can i change the sort order in HTC Album?
first image in preview is the last in explorer and so on
i would like to have it sorted upwards

You probably have an old build of HTC Album. The stock build on my HTC Touch Cruise zoomz very easily (via touch screen and jog dial). I once tried an XDA build, but found that gestures would often cause rotation when I wanted to zoom, and zoom when I wanted to rotate.
As for videos, HTC album does preview them, but when you click on it, it opens them in Windows Media Player. Is this the behavior that you experience?
You could try the new HTC album floating around from the Opal/Manilla 2D.
Has anyone else had problems getting album art to display correctly in the HTC music app? Whenever play files that have an embedded album cover, the cover is totally corrupted (just a mass or garbled green/purple/yellow lines).
I added the covers via EasyTag, but I've also tried other tools too. I just can't get the album art to display. I found the following bug report, but it has no solution (tried eyeD3, I just get the same behaviour):
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=2071
Anyone have any ideas?
had that on one albumart, just a black/white picture, looks somewhat like a qr-code from the market in a stretched version.
Hey guys I've been trying to get the album art to display properly in the Google music app but I can't seem to get it to show certain covers, some albums work fine but others just won't work any ideas how to fix it?
