I have an N95 (HK version), meaning it will support chinese characters.
I have a vast collection of oriental pop music on itunes (some mp3, some apples lossless). They all have been tagged and have album artwork embedded in them.
This is what I have found so far:
1. mp3 files transferred over using NMT1.0 is fine on playing, and has all the artist and track names displayed properly, but no album art is dsiplayed. I have copied the tracks to a windows machine and WMP seems to be able to display the album art (so that confirms that the album art is embedded)
2. Apple lossless files are transcoded into AAC (mp4). No album art is embedded, and album, artist, and track names are lost. So, anything that is transcoded will leave in the "Unknown" section when browsing music.
3. I tried converting an apple lossless file in itunes, and then use NMT to transfer the music to my N95. Now, album art is displayed, but track ID is not regconised properly (they are in unicode format).
I would love Nokia to sort this out in later relases ... that will make this phone stand against the iphone ....
