Album Art for Flac

[alexander121]

Hello,
i am trying to embed a picture as album art for a flac file (that is generated with ffmpeg.

Therefore i use metaflac (https://xiph.org/flac/documentation_tools_metaflac.html)

but it does not seem to work !

Any help ?

metaflac --import-picture-from="cover.png" chill.flac

I happened to have downloaded a program called mp3tag recently, so I tried using it to add a cover to FLAC and it worked perfectly.

I'm sure there are plenty of programs that can do it.

The problem is that i want an open source project to include the program in a project of mine.

Over here, metaflac (1.2.1) appears to work as it should.

The album art is displayed fine in foobar2000

thanks, i checked it again and metaflac embeds the album art.

i can see it in WinAmp but the album art is not displayed in Windows Explorer (Windows 8) for some reason.

Does something in Windows need a plug-in or add-on? I remember Windows Media Player needed an extra so flac files would work.
