i'm surprised u go the google images route. i do that as well but only
when nothing else worked, not routinely.
i think mp3tag has art retrieval and i think it uses amazon and maybe
some other sources, but i've never used it and i don't know if it does
art in the folder (where i want it) or in the tag, or if thats
configurable. i do have it set to show art in the folder, but i also
rarely use mp3tag anyway, but it is a very useful and powerful app.
just for reference, here's what the flac.exe help says:
Code:
--------------------
-h, --help Show basic usage a list of all options
-H, --explain Show this screen
-d, --decode Decode (the default behavior is to encode)
-t, --test Same as -d except no decoded file is written
-a, --analyze Same as -d except an analysis file is written
-c, --stdout Write output to stdout
-s, --silent Do not write runtime encode/decode statistics
--totally-silent Do not print anything of any kind, including
warnings or errors. The exit code will be the
only way to determine successful completion.
--no-utf8-convert Do not convert tags from local charset to UTF-8.
This is useful for scripts, and setting tags in
situations where the locale is wrong. This
option must appear before any tag options!
-w, --warnings-as-errors Treat all warnings as errors
-f, --force Force overwriting of output files
-o, --output-name=FILENAME Force the output file name; usually flac just
changes the extension. May only be used when
encoding a single file. May not be used in
conjunction with --output-prefix.
--output-prefix=STRING Prefix each output file name with the given
STRING. This can be useful for encoding or
decoding files to a different directory. Make
sure if your STRING is a path name that it ends
with a '/' slash.
--delete-input-file Automatically delete the input file after a
successful encode or decode. If there was an
error (including a verify error) the input file
is left intact.
--keep-foreign-metadata If encoding, save WAVE or AIFF non-audio chunks
in FLAC metadata. If decoding, restore any saved
non-audio chunks from FLAC metadata when writing
the decoded file. Foreign metadata cannot be
transcoded, e.g. WAVE chunks saved in a FLAC file
cannot be restored when decoding to AIFF. Input
and output must be regular files, not stdin/out.
--skip={#|mm:ss.ss} Skip the first # samples of each input file; can
be used both for encoding and decoding. The
alternative form mm:ss.ss can be used to specify
minutes, seconds, and fractions of a second.
--until={#|[+|-]mm:ss.ss} Stop at the given sample number for each input
file. The given sample number is not included
in the decoded output. The alternative form
mm:ss.ss can be used to specify minutes,
seconds, and fractions of a second. If a `+'
sign is at the beginning, the --until point is
relative to the --skip point. If a `-' sign is
at the beginning, the --until point is relative
to end of the audio.
--ogg When encoding, generate Ogg FLAC output instead
of native FLAC. Ogg FLAC streams are FLAC
streams wrapped in an Ogg transport layer. The
resulting file should have an '.oga' extension
and will still be decodable by flac. When
decoding, force the input to be treated as
Ogg FLAC. This is useful when piping input
from stdin or when the filename does not end in
'.oga' or '.ogg'.
--serial-number Serial number to use for the FLAC stream. When
encoding and no serial number is given, flac
uses a random one. If encoding to multiple files
the serial number is incremented for each file.
When decoding and no number is given, flac uses
the serial number of the first page.
analysis options:
--residual-text Include residual signal in text output. This
will make the file very big, much larger than
even the decoded file.
--residual-gnuplot Generate gnuplot files of residual distribution
of each subframe
decoding options:
-F, --decode-through-errors By default flac stops decoding with an error
and removes the partially decoded file if it
encounters a bitstream error. With -F, errors
are still printed but flac will continue
decoding to completion. Note that errors may
cause the decoded audio to be missing some
samples or have silent sections.
--cue=[#.#][-[#.#]] Set the beginning and ending cuepoints to
decode. The optional first #.# is the track and
index point at which decoding will start; the
default is the beginning of the stream. The
optional second #.# is the track and index point
at which decoding will end; the default is the
end of the stream. If the cuepoint does not
exist, the closest one before it (for the start
point) or after it (for the end point) will be
used. The cuepoints are merely translated into
sample numbers then used as --skip and --until.
A CD track can always be cued by, for example,
--cue=9.1-10.1 for track 9, even if the CD has
no 10th track.
encoding options:
-V, --verify Verify a correct encoding by decoding the
output in parallel and comparing to the
original
--lax Allow encoder to generate non-Subset files
--sector-align Align encoding of multiple CD format WAVE files
on sector boundaries.
