Samsung TV Music ScreenSaver cover art

Hello,

When playing music (MP3 files with embedded album art covers), the artwork is displayed correctly on the music browsing and playing screen. However when the screensaver kicks in after about 10 minutes, while the name of the song and artist is shown, the cover artwork is not. Instead it's replaced with a generic picture of a guy playing a saxaphone. Does anyone have the artwork appearing correctly during the screensaver?

The TV is a Samsung PN50C550 with the current firmware.
Thanks!

Does anyone have a Samsung TV where this issue is the same? Does anyone have the cover art working via Serviio for audio when the screen saver kicks in?
Thanks!

i have a similar problem on a Samsung LA32D550 TV. I get small thumbnails of the album artwork in the menus but when i play an mp3 file there is no artwork displayed just the standard gray icon with a musical note in it. I have both both folder.jpg files in each album folder as well as artwork embedded in the mp3 files themselves. I notice that if i play files off a hard drive connected to the tv the artwork displays normally using either embedded artwork or folder.jpg.

on my Samsung PS60F5500 in the system settings for anti burn in it says it kicks in a screen saver after 5 mins and it does.
A black screen with a small blue samsung logo flickering around every few seconds.

Am i to believe that if i turn this off, i will have album art from serviio instead?

obviously one piece of art for the duration of a full album would be a bad idea, but on random play it would change every 4-5 mins which would be fine i think
