    How Do I Replace Album Art

    I recently purchased Ref 13. I have encoded about 200 albums with JPEGs I scrounged from the Internet for Front Album Cover and Back Album Cover. I ripped them all to FLAC using CD Ripper. I now want to replace both the Front Album Cover and Back Album Cover with new versions that I have scanned myself from the original artwork.

    The process I used for the Front Album Cover was to first delete the Album Artwork using ID Tag Update. Then I would have to re-run ID Tag Update to add the new artwork using the "Import Album Art from Folder.jpg". If I tried to combine these 2 steps into one pass, the existing Album Artwork was removed but the new artwork was never added. I assume this 2-step process worked since the file details said there is Album Art and the file is bigger. (When I tried to look at the tags in Tag&Rename, it showed no Artwork).

    My questions are these.

    Is this the proper way to replace Front Album Cover artwork? Is there a more straight forward approach?

    How do I do this for Back Album Cover?

    Thanks for your help.

    Yes as expected as the deletion is a deletion. Do all your files with the delete, then do all with the import. Not possible to get back cover in automatically.

      Thanks for the reply.

      Now, for the Back Cover Album. I assume when I place both the Front Cover and Back Cover album art into CD Ripper and rip the CD, that both images are stored in the file. Now if I want to replace the Back Cover Album, how do I do it without re-ripping the CD?

      Thanks.

        You can go to the "Edit Tag" tab on the properties of the file and add/remove multiple album arts there.
