Version r11.5 does not support album art.
Version r12 does I believe.

You need the beta mp4 codec to wok with album art.

Thank you.

I have used the register page, but strangely there were *two* links for DMC-r12.2-Registered.exe. Why is that?

Re: Retaining album art

Do they both link to the same file or different files? If different, it might be in case one download is corrupt for some reason.

They link to the same file. Not to worry, I'll go with the first.
