Save Album Cover inside tag -- How to ?
« on: July 19, 2004, 10:05:21 am »
This is abit more complicated than a simple how to ... but I hve a few hundred files that have their cover art in the J River directory ... and the remaining 95% of my collection has the cover art INSIDE the file ...

I have checked the box in the option to place image files inside the tags ..
Now What ?

How do I get this to work ..

In the old days, I would just check/uncheck the box from the right-click context menu .. but that option is gone and going into the options doesnt seem to actively change what Im working on ..

Is there a simple way to do this that Im missing .. I just want to move the images from the directory into the file tags :)

Here's how I did it...I sorted to files to show the image location, hilighted those with the files not inside the file, made sure the box that said store image inside file was checked, then right clicked on another part of MC and the changeing tags msg came up.  I double checked to make sure, and the images were now stored inside the files.

If the box is checked you can Update Tags from Library.

That worked for me.

im having troubles getting this to work...

i've checked store images in file
i highlight some files and choose update tags from library, but that doesnt work. Somehow i need to move the image file first...

[edit: i just got it to work with some mp3 files. must have been trying with the wrong file type first]
