Hi, does Rockbox have a limit regarding album art resolution? My iPod G5.5 only shows it for some tracks, sometimes with ridicously long track durations in the progress bar. Any ideas? TIA

[update 01]: RB apparently prefers JPEG until 600 x 600 pixels, ideally not progressive. After updating the cover art to 150 x 150 sizes, the iPod briefly displays the album art for ~10 sec max, followed by skipping to the next song and the same behavior all over again. Not sure if this is happening because the database might still be updating in the background.

[update 02]: issue seems solved: File transfer to the iPod should be done in disk mode of the iPod OS, otherwise songs will be corrupted.

Thanks everyone to contributing with your input!

When you added the album to your iPod, was it separate files for every song, or was it one big file with a .cue file?

Separate songs, sorted into separate folders by albums. No other files, as all metadata is embedded in the files.
