Just installed MediaSteersman onto an Android tablet and I could see artwork for video and photos when browsing my Mezzmo server (and also other media servers). However, I could not see artwork for music files from Mezzmo server or any other media servers. So it seems music artwork is not displayed in MediaSteersman. Mezzmo is delivering the artwork to the app, but it is not displaying it for some reason. Perhaps take this up with the MediaSteersman developer.

Mezzmo gets metadata from multiple sources:


Metadata embedded within the media file itself
Metadata from external metadata files (*.xml, *.tgmd, *.nfo, etc.)
Metadata from web sites like www.thetvdb.com and www.imdb.com

If you wish to change attributes collected for a media file in Mezzmo, right-click on the file in Mezzmo and click Properties to display the Properties dialog. The Properties dialog holds all the attributes that Mezzmo uses to organize your files and that are sent to your devices when browsing & streaming.

Just finished the device profile for MediaSteersman. It will be included in the upcoming Mezzmo v3.3. It will display artwork for music.

Note: The current version of MediaSteersman only displays artwork for music when the music is contained in a music album. It does not show music artwork when you browse folders or non-music album playlists. Example: Use Plex and browse to Music -> Music -> By Folder. Artwork for music is not displayed. This is a bug (feature?) with MediaSteersman.
