Album Art and Your HomeDock HD
HomeDock HD can display Album Art for the track currently playing (if available) or while browsing by album.
Up to 250 Album Art images can be held in memory by your HomeDock HD. Once that limit is reached, your
HomeDock HD will delete the least-used image in order to store a new one.
NOTE: The 4th Generation iPod does not currently support external display of Album Art.
Album Art is displayed in several places throughout the user interface:
Whenever a selection is playing, the Album Art is displayed •
in the Now Playing Banner near the bottom of the screen.
When browsing by album, the Album Art for the selected •
album is shown (if available) as well as the Album Art for
the song currently playing.
NOTE: Larger artwork may take a few moments to download.
Several Screen Savers have the ability to display the •
Album Art of the song currently playing.
HomeDock HD does not download Album Art until a song is played in order to save time during initialization.
It can take several seconds to load the artwork from your iPod; while the larger artwork is loading, your
HomeDock HD will display smaller artwork (if available).
NOTE: HomeDock HD will be unresponsive if you attempt to use the Remote during this process. You will see
a “Please Wait” notice while the artwork is loading.
Once displayed, the artwork is cached in HomeDock HD’s memory for faster retrieval later. If you’d like
HomeDock HD to retrieve Album Art even faster during use, choose the Cataloging option from the Settings
Menu. See Cataloging Album Art [pg.16].
If your current selection does not have any Album Art, or if the Album Art is unavailable, HomeDock HD will
display one of seven placeholder images:
