How do you get the media player to show the picture of the CD when playing tracks?

Thanks guys!

Just put the image cover in the same folder of the album you want. You can also use Itunes to add album art.

use the Sony Ericsson Media Manager from the CD that come with unit. If it show blank album cover, just click on the album, it will bring up the internet explorer. Just select the correct album cover and transfer the song again to your phone.

I have the same problem. What I already have tried:

1) Adding covers with iTunes. On my Mac it works properly, also when I just browse the file the cover is shown as a thumbnail of the mp3.
2) Copy the album picture to "Pictures" in a map with the sama name as the album.
3) Copy the album picture to the same map where the mp3's of the album are.

Only one of my ten albums has a cover art, and it had with my first attempt already (just copying the mp3's which have an album art of iTunes). But why doesn't work?

Thanks!

The image has to be embedded in the MP3 file, not just adressed by it. Program called MediaMonkey can do that and it's basic version is free.
