Dbpoweramp Edit Id tags (right click command)

[sylvainp]

Hi, i've been using DBpowerAmp for several years and really like it. I often use the DB edit ID tags to change the album art size or get better quality.
I also export them to Folder.jpg

Let's says the original is 1600 x 1600 and I want to reduce to 1000x1000 and export to Folder.jpg

I select the album art and choose to resize to 1000x1000 and It will resize. And click OK
If I reopen the files now I have 2 album art the original 1600x1600 and the 1000x1000
I then delete the bigger one and press OK

(This will also happen if I delete the original album art and use the button to Get album art from Internet.
After I press OK but if I reopen the files I will have both album art :original and the new album art)

I reopen the files and now I only have the 1000x1000 and after I can Export to Folder.jpg

Why Do I need to close and reopen 3 times all the files ? Why can't we make this in 1 single step ?


Open files
resize the album art
Export to Folder.jpg
Click OK

What you mean with next version ? I just bought V17 this week and thought this was fix from previous version.

What I do is highlight all files, right click, delete any artwork (it will delete from all at once), and then select the new size artwork from wherever your source is, apply to tracks (it will also do all tracks at once), and I am good to go. It's a very easy step. Hopefully I explained that somewhat coherently.

Just tested, it is working as it should, and can be done in one step:

1) right click files >> edit ID Tags
2) delete the existing art with [x]
3) choose or load art
4) select ... >> resize
5) select export folder.jpg

It will be in the correct size.

Ok let's say you already have the album art but it's too big and you just want to resize it. Let's say it's 1600 x 1600 and want to reduce it to 1000 x 1000.

Normally you should just have to resize the actual album art.
Then export to Folder.jpg

If you do this and reopen the files you will have both the original and resize album art in the tag.
