Album Cover Art Recovery and Manual Insertion

Re: Album Cover Art Recovery and Manual Insertion

mrspoonsi,

Thank you for your prompt reply. Unforfunately, I was born before the electronic generation and I do not understand what you are telling me. Following dbPoweramp ripping a CD, the music is placed on a hard drive and it is totally not showing in dbPoweramp. The only place the music is listed is in an external folder containing all of the ripped music. Since the music computer uses Windows 7, if I right click on an album, the music folder coimes up in Roxio Converter. O.K. I am lost. Please treat me as a dummy and give me a step-by-step instruction. I do know how to copy the jpeg cover of an album off the Internet.

I sincerely hope that what you tell me will also benefit a number of other users of dbPoweramp.

Thank you again,
Tom Swaman

You would have to manually add it after ripping, select all the album tracks, right click >> edit I'd tags, the click the add art work item, choose from Internet.

Sorry to be so new and ignorant, but if I rip using my computer and the CD ripper, I am often able to insert album cover art from the Internet that neither AMG, Free DB or the other one picks up. If the batch ripper rips an album I often get zero cover art, yet I know this is readily and correctly available on the Internet. Can you please tell me how I can go about recovering the barch ribbed CD and a cover from the Internet and then insert this with the metadat for storage on the hard drive like any other album cover? Many thanks in advance.

With much appreciation,
Tom Swaman
