Title: Get Cover art from MP3 info
Post by: Christen on May 12, 2009, 07:53:52 PM
Hi

I have a music libary that I want cover art for. Is there some easy way of getting it? Some program that will download a jpg to put in the folders, for the E-Touch software?

ITune have a database where it gets cover art. Maybe these pictures can be extracted somehow.


Or if I embed the cover art in the mp3 can E-Touch Jukebox find it?

There are a few different ways to grab artwork....

The one that I found best for me is Album Art Downloader.  Do a Google search and I think you will find it on SourceForge... It queries about 20 something sources.  It is a little tricky to configure but once it is configured it works great.

I used to use Tag and Rename.  It grabs the info from Amazon but I have some pretty obscure stuff that Amazon does not have.

That looks great. I will use that.  :)

But I allready have some covers downloaded to iTunes, is there anyway of extracting them. I have searched on google but I can only find solutions for mac, and I am on Windows.

If the covers are embedded into the tunes you can extract them with Tag & Rename
