Anyway to Make Album Art Not Show?

I have all my music loaded as 320kpbs mp3 files on the hard drive in the car. I do not use my phone to stream music. Is there any way to make it so album art does NOT show up on the iDrive screen?

I'd rather just see artists/album/title, and how far through the song. I don't want to see the album art there instead.

Remove all Album Art from your music.

Remove the tags/art from your music files. You can easily take all of them with this but you will loose all tags, artist, album etc though...

I thought a bit more about this and I think I was unclear as to what I wanted; I'm using the split screen, with nav on the right, and the media on the left. In full screen mode, it would show album art on the left and song info on the right. In split screen mode, with media on the left, nav on the right, it shows song info for about 5 seconds, and then switches to album art. What I want is for it to always show song info, and not show album art. Any way to do that?

Anyone have an idea (that doesn't involve removing all album art from my mp3 files)
