Yes or No, MM works with iOS 8.4?

This should be fixed in build 1762 (to be posted later today). Can you confirm whether it works for you?

Thanks.

Tried with MMW b1762 and iOS 9.02 and lost 'some' artwork. All artwork is 100% embedded in the tag on the local file. For some unknown reason, iTunes is sync'ing artwork for some songs even though I have the music and movies setting set to manual. I don't see this as a MMW issue since I can see on the banner at the top that iTunes is updating Artwork when I sync Apps and backing up. I just cannot figure out why this is happening when when I have music and movies set to manual.

It would be really nice if we could get MMW to check for artwork when it is determining tracks to update.

Can you try deleting the affected tracks and resyncing with build 1764, and let us know if the problem still occurs.

btw, do you notice anything particular about the artwork of the tracks for which artwork was deleted vs other tracks?

Thanks.

I upgraded to build 1764 this morning and removed the tracks as suggested. When I re-sync, the artwork is indeed added back with the tracks.

I then went back into iTunes (v12.3) and did the sync from there for apps, photos, and backup. In the final step, iTunes is updating artwork for about 10% of my library even though I have:
Sync only checked songs and videos - Unchecked
Manually manage music and videos - Checked
All videos - Unchecked
All tracks - Unchecked

I randomly checked the local files for the tracks that are missing artwork and I find nothing unique about them. The files were created using MMW 3.07 and much of the artwork is 300x300, around 15 kb. There are many files within the library with very similar size artwork, converted at the same time, but have no issue.

I tried to simply re-sync with MMW after iTunes wiped out the artwork, but no changes were made.

The root issue seems to be with iTunes in my view as it should not be doing anything with artwork with the above settings. Please let me know if I am missing anything.

It would be nice if we could overcome this by enhancing MMW to consider artwork when determining files to sync.
