I have been going through my collection and updating, as we all do, and I have been making sure I have artwork embedded into the files. I am using Mp3tag v3.11. I have been pulling my artwork from albumartexchange.com and I have been grabbing the largest and best looking of what is available. Usually a 1500x1500 and whatever looks "cleanest". Some of these files have been huge (as much as 4MB), but I wasn't overly concerned with it. I am running into an issue where some artwork won't show up on MMP on my Android phone. But it will show up if I use AIMP on the same phone. It's not all albums, just some. and it's always the whole album won't show artwork, not just some files. It is not a pixel size issue, it seems to be the actual size of the artwork jpg that gets embedded. I don't know that I need 1500x1500 pixel artwork, but I figured why not.
I think I have discovered that the root issue is a 2MB file limit to the artwork before MMP won't show it. I replaced the artwork with smaller file-size ones, and they work. I am sure this is my fix, so I'm not really looking for assistance, more just sharing my experience in case someone else runs into the same issue. I think from here on out I will limit it to 1000x1000.
