Metadata Editor

My library (OneDrive) once loaded is missing a bunch of album art that isn't missing in other apps. I went to use the metadata editor and I'm having very inconsistent results. I have saved JPG file of the album art and go to each song within the album (using control/click to highlight all the songs) add the JPG file, hit save and these are the results I get:

  • doesn't add the JPG to any of the songs (this happens most the time)
  • adds the JPG to all but the first song in the album (this may happen on the 5th or 6th time)

When the second condition works, I go into the first song to add the JPG and can't get it to add.

Am I using the tool incorrectly, need to use a different file type? Also, what is the AUTOTAG button do - I couldn't find it in the discussions.

Thanks again!!!

    Hi - can you let us know (via email if you like) example audio files where this occurred?

    Auto tag creates an audio fingerprint of the file and sends it to Acoustid, which attempts to recognise the fingerprint and link it to the MusicBrainz database, providing the metadata.
