I have an album in windows Media Center, and it has the common headphones pic for the album cover because I did not have a picture for it when i brought the album into WMC.....now I have downloaded the picture and made sure it is in the same folder with the album. I can not get the picture to show up in the media center

any help would be great?

not sure if this will work, or if this is even what you're trying to do, but try renaming the image to Folder.jpg or Folder.whatever

it uses the hidden files from windows media player

open windows media player, play the song you want the album cover for, then right click (on song name in 'now playing' playlist and click on "find album info", let it search and select which song it is, then the album cover will be imported correctly and stored in that folder

if you have lots of various albums in one folder this will not work, well it might

the hidden files include:
AlbumArt_{some random file_id}_Large.jpg
AlbumArt_{some random file_id}_Small.jpg
albumartsmall.jpg
folder.jpg
desktop.ini
