How to add graphic_front_cover to VORBIS_COMMENT METADATA?

[chinganda]

Hi,

How do I get the ripper to add "graphic_front_cover" comment to the METADATA block (VORBIS_COMMENT). Its value should be the same as the METADATA block (PICTURE).

This is because, my receiver will only display the 'album art' when it is found in the METADATA block (VORBIS_COMMENT).

Thank you.

I do not think you can, what is your player?

Its a network enabled Denon receiver, specifically AVR-4311CI, connected to twonky media 5.1.7. Using the program metaflac.exe, I was able to determine that the flac that had graphic_front_cover to VORBIS_COMMENT, it was able to display the album art work, ones that did not, it was not able to display the album art work. However, both files still had had a PICTURE metadata tag.

Twonky is notorious for being picky with album art, note it is twonky not the player which is not detecting the art.

Instead write a folder.jpg. Is should be picked up by anything, or take a look at a better upnp server, such as Asset Upnp

This is not the case.

Both albums have Folder.jpg which contains the album art. However the one folder where the flac does not contain graphic_front_cover to VORBIS_COMMENT METADATA still does not show the album art work. As such, I have to conclude that the album art is not showing because of lack of this tag.

Thanks for the pointer to to Asset Upnp, question does it come in a linux distribution?
