    Truck came with a large touch screen and would think Toyota would have the capability of having album art as a background when playing MP3s. Down side is I have not yet been smart enough to figure it out even with searching google today for an embarrassingly long time. Anyone know how to get album art as back ground with mp3s?

    Mine does it via Bluetooth from my Note 3 phone. The thumbnail must be in with the audio tracks. Should all be there when you rip the CD to file format.

    Going off a USB my radio only shows a blue MP3 box. JPG file is included with the given track. JPG is 600x600 if I recall. What I do not know is the file format needed or if it has a thumbnail size limitation.

    Streaming Pandora off the phone a Samsung 4S I do not see any images other than the standard Toyota blue screen data.

    If possible could you take a look at the source image file type and size? Perhaps that is the key...
