FLAC/Cover Art
« on: October 14, 2007, 08:34:48 pm »
New to MC...

I've got "artist - album.jpg" files in many of my folders that contain FLAC tracks of my CD collection... I've been considering inserting the JPG file for each cover directly into the FLAC tags but I've only experimented at this point.

When I import a FLAC into the MC library, I have to manually select the "Cover Art/Quick Find In File" option and MC enters the JPG into the library correctly. I verified this using the Image File column. Is there a way to get MC to try to do this automatically at import?

Second, if I embed the cover art into the FLAC tags, importing doesn't seem to find the art "Inside File" but this seems to happen with a couple of test MP3s that I have which have cover art embedded... is this just a missing feature with how MC handles FLAC?

Thanx

UPDATE: The JPGs that I was not getting automatically associated with the FLAC files were on a network drive. I built a library on the machine locally tonight and MC found the album cover art. I don't know if this is a bug but I thought I'd mention it.
