Title: Mc( cover art help please
Post by: DanB on June 18, 2003, 07:21:59 am
I am usinf the cover art tool (internet) to download cover art for various new albums in my collection. When it does find cover art, it does associate the art with the file, BUT it does not seem to be embedding the art into the tag. I have a majority of my collection with cover art already. This cover art is all viewable with other apps, but the art I downloaded and "attached" since I bought MC9 (yesterday) is not viewable in these other apps. To be honest, this is one of the main features I use. Also, couldn;t the search be a little more broad, letting me choose from different option? It is pretty sloppy for the most part. Thanks.

This used to be possible but has been removed (temporarily I think) in the latest 9.1 builds.  However this behaviour can be reinstated using a registry hack.  It is in one of the posts here do a search for cover art registry hack and you should find it.

Hi, here's the thread with the registry hack you seek:

I'm going to give it a try too.

Thanks guys. That registry tweak seemed to do the trick. Now if only there was a easy-to-use utility to get lyrics into the tags....
