Embedded cover art
ByHi Paul
Png is no good with Twonky neither embedded nor as an external file. Jpg is ok for embedded art and as a Folder.jpg file in the album folder of your library.
Caroline asked this question a while back: Preferred artwork with downloads, but they haven’t found it timely to change the format of at least the cover art to jpg.
I’ve just tried playing around with XLD, but I’m just not compatible with it! never mind, that’s just me…it’s probably fine for ripping. I can embed art with Max – just can’t figure out how to make XLD do it…
can you? So whenever I need to embed cover art I use Max.
Don’t hesitate to ask if you want some specific hints regarding Max…
When you’ve got the time – maybe on a rainy day have a look at this, Paul:
Fix for those wanting JPEGs in FLAC files.
The first part takes you through the process of embedding art through the command line/Terminal – it’s very interesting although a bit hairy…I’ve succeed doing it, so should be fairly simple…
I think there’s another software for Mac that does it too, but maybe it’s one of those mentioned by Mike1.

PS. I’ve started using Songbook Mac when ripping…does a neat job, no logfile though, but accuraterip neverhteless – AND embedding jpgs…
PPS. just remembered, Max actually embeds pngs – sorry…forgot I’d made a custom rebuild…
