我的电脑上有很多音乐，即使我不将它用作我的主要媒体播放器或管理器，它也能正常工作，因为我经常使用Windows Explorer或Windows Media Player浏览文件等。我注意到的一件烦人的事情是我的MP3文件不会在Explorer和WMP中显示专辑封面。
我没有在单击音乐文件时获取专辑插图，而是一直获取Windows中(Windows)MP3的默认音乐图标：
在Windows Media Player中，同样的问题发生在专辑封面没有被正确识别并且显示默认图像的地方：
我使用名为MP3Tag的标签编辑器程序嵌入了专辑封面。添加(Adding)专辑封面非常简单，您只需将图像文件拖放到专辑封面插槽中即可。它似乎工作正常，因为艺术作品出现在MP3Tag程序中，所以直到我在(MP3Tag)Windows Explorer中查看文件之前我没有遇到问题。
在做了一些研究并尝试了一些设置之后，我能够让艺术品在Windows中正确显示。在本文中，我将提到我尝试过的几件事，希望其中一个对你有用。
方法 1 – 使用不同的程序
出于某种原因，我尝试的第一件事是使用不同的程序。而不是MP3Tag，我尝试了Media Monkey并以这种方式添加了专辑封面，这似乎奏效了。人们提到的另一个程序是TagScanner。尽管它有效，但我真的很喜欢MP3Tag，所以我认为程序中必须有一些东西我可以改变它才能让它工作。
方法 2 – MP3 标签格式
在MP3Tag中，您还需要确保编写 v1 和 v2 的ID3标签。这将确保如果像Windows Explorer这样的程序只能读取一种格式，它仍然能够查看专辑封面，而不是不显示任何内容。
此外，您也可以为版本尝试不同的格式。我尝试了 v2 的2.3 UTF-16格式，专辑插图开始在Windows Explorer和Windows Media Player中正常显示。出于某种奇怪的原因，Windows 7 不喜欢ID3 v2.4 标签。因此，请检查您使用的版本并将其更改为 2.3，您应该一切顺利。
方法 3 – Windows 属性
您可以尝试的另一件对某些人有效的方法是打开带有 MP3 的文件夹并全部选择它们。然后右键单击并选择Properties。然后单击详细信息(Details)选项卡。然后您只需要更改任何详细信息，即年份等。只需(Just)将其删除，然后重新输入即可。
完成此操作后，“应用(Apply)”按钮将再次变为活动状态，您可以单击它。无论出于何种原因，某些人的所有缩略图都在执行此操作后开始显示。也许它会重新读取文件或其他内容，然后正确显示专辑插图。
就是这样。只要您拥有正确的ID3标签格式，您就应该能够轻松地在Windows Media Player和Windows Explorer中查看您的专辑插图。如果您仍然遇到问题并且无法展示艺术品，请在此处发表评论，我们会尽力提供帮助。享受！
MP3 Album Art Not Showing in Windows Explorer?
I have a lot of music on my computer and eνen though I don’t use it аs my primаry mediа player or organizer, it’s nice to have it work properly sіnce I do end up using Windows Exрlorer or Windows Media Plaуer every so often to browse fileѕ, etc. One annoying thing that I noticed was that my MP3 files wouldn’t display the album art in Explorer аnd in WMP.
Instead of getting the album artwork while clicking on a music file, I kept getting the default music icon for an MP3 in Windows:
In Windows Media Player, the same issue was occurring where the album art was not being recognized properly and it was display a default image:
I had embedded the album art using a tag editor program called MP3Tag. Adding album art is really easy, you just drag and drop an image file into the album art slot. It seemed to work fine because the artwork shows up in the MP3Tag program, so I didn’t there was a problem until I viewed the files in Windows Explorer.
After doing some research and playing around with some settings, I was able to get the artwork to show up properly in Windows. In this article, I’ll mention a couple of the things I tried and hopefully one of them will work for you.
Method 1 – Use a Different Program
For some reason, the first thing I tried was to use a different program. Instead of MP3Tag, I tried Media Monkey and added the album art that way, which seemed to have worked. Another program people mentioned was TagScanner. Even though it worked, I really like MP3Tag, so I figured there had to be something in the program I could change to get it to work.
Method 2 – MP3 Tag Format
In MP3Tag, you also need to make sure you are writing v1 and v2 of ID3 tags. This will ensure that if a program like Windows Explorer can only read one format, it will still be able to view the album art rather than not displaying anything.
Also, you can try a different format for the versions too. I tried 2.3 UTF-16 format for v2 and the album artwork started showing up fine in Windows Explorer and Windows Media Player. For some odd reason, Windows 7 does not like the ID3 v2.4 tags. So check what version you are using and change it to 2.3 and you should be good to go.
Method 3 – Windows Properties
One other thing you can try that has worked for some is to open the folder with the MP3’s and select them all. Then right-click and choose Properties. Then click on the Details tab. Then you simply need to make a change to any of the details, i.e. the year, etc. Just delete it and then re-type it in.
Once you do that, the Apply button will become active again and you can click it. For whatever reason, all of the thumbnails for some people started showing after doing this. Maybe it re-reads the file or something else and then it shows the album artwork properly.
That’s about it. As long as you have the correct format for the ID3 tags, you should easily be able to view your album artwork in Windows Media Player and in Windows Explorer. If you are still having problems and can’t get the artwork to show, post a comment here and we’ll try to help. Enjoy!
