add album cover to mp3 files

if you have mp3 files and a jpg with the album cover (eg cover.jpg) and you want to add your album covers directly to the mp3 file, do these steps:

  • download and install Mp3tag from http://www.mp3tag.de/en/
  • open the folder with your mp3 files (can also be a root folder of hundreds of files)
  • create a action:
  • Menu: Convert - Action.
  • New: add a name eg cover.
  • New action type: choose "Import cover from file".
  • Format string..: cover.jpg.
  • Now select your mp3 files, where you want to add the cover and choose Menu - Convert - Actions or the Actions button.
  • Select one (or more) actions - cover.
  • OK - well done :-) now do the same by selecting all files (can take a while, but much better than drag and drop). jea.
