Add Album Art issues

[SOMFW]

Recently I haven't been able to add album art to certain mp3's.
This isn't the issue of the "From the Internet" issue not working.
This happens on CD's I ripped and on ones I have downloaded from the net and had been happening fairly frequently recently.
The process fails whether I choose the "From the internet option or if I choose to manually add Album art.
The program goes through every step and seems to be working, but doesn't write it to the file after I choose OK

To date the only way I have been able to fix this is to either Re-convert the files back to wave and them back to mp3
or let DB converter overwrite them straight to the same bitrate mp3. Another fix I found was to hit clear, after doing this the album art "sticks" but I lose all the other data and have to manually add it. This wouldn't be so bad on a few songs, but I have Thousands of songs to upload to Google music and I hate not having the album art.

Any ides on how to fix this or what else to do?


Thanks in advance

I am on XP using DBPoweramp 14.2

Re: Add Album Art issues

Are you sure that another program is not stopping the writing, such as Windows Media Player? or security software has put dbpoweramp in a sandbox?

Nope, I am not sure.
How would I even check or know?

With that said, why would it work on some mp3's and not others? And why would it work when I go through the hassle of re-converting them?

Thanks for the response

A final possible issue, if the existing ID3 tags are ID3v2.4 then it is possible writes would not stick as dbpoweramp cannot write these tags.

According to DBPoweramp, the files are - ID tag ID3v1.1
I have uploaded a zip file that contains the mp3 and the cover art

if anyone wants to take a crack at it or can tell me if the file is the problem
If you are unsure about downloading a zip the 2 single files are

Id3v1 cannot hold album art, you need to use ID Tag Update to update to v2 then it will be able to hold the album art.
