Q: AirPlay Album Art only shows for first track.

I'm having a problem with AirPlay from both my iPhone and iPad to my apple tv. When I stream music the album art only appears for the first track. All the subsequent tracks show just a grey music note. Whilst its not a huge problem it doesn't look as good as it could. Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks for your speedy response. Interestingly it seems to stream all the art fine through the 'Computer' menu on Apple TV from a Mac Pro in my study making me think at's an AirPlay issue through mobile devices.

     

    With a bit of luck they'll fix it soon!

    I get a similar problem stereaming from Mac Mini to Pioneer X-SMC3 via AirPlay, in that some albums stream with album art just fine, others display the grey music note for every track, even though all my albums have had their art tagged exactly the same way in iTunes.

     

    I don't even own an Apple TV so it sounds like an AirPlay issue rather than an ATV issue
