Title: Several Artwork Images for a Single File?
Post by: G-Power on October 26, 2020, 01:32:11 PM

Greetings.
In Itunes, there is this option for selecting two artwork images for a single file. One artwork image is displayed as the album (or EP or single) artwork, and the other is displayed as the song artwork, which appears in the "now playing" section.
Is there a way to achieve this in Musicbee?
Thank you.
Best wishes.

Yes on the artwork screen of the tag editor (Shift+Enter or right click -> Edit)

You can only set one as primary, though.  You can, however, choose to rotate the artwork in Now Playing so both show.

Thank you for your reply.
I see that there is a "primary picture" checkbox in the "Edit" menu. I cannot uncheck it, though. I believe that this is due to the fact that there is only one artwork picture for the song.
There seems to be no option but to delete the present artwork in order to add another one, at this point. I must be missing on something. Does the "picture type" dropdown menu have something to do with this?
Thank you again.
Have a great afternoon.

Welcome to the forum G-Power.

Perhaps you have the Tag Editor positioned docked in the panel?

(So do I, and it may have been a couple of years before I discovered you could scroll it down...)

Among other things, yes.  ;D

Sir Frankz, you have incredible artistic talent. Perhaps you could make your own album artwork. Thank you very much. I found that by scrolling down the menu, as Hiccup mentioned (many thanks to you too, sir), I can access the option I was looking for.
Have a great evening all.
Problem solved. I'm locking this topic.
Cheers and God bless.

You can't lock this topic.

It is my right to continue to post in this thread if I so choose.
It's in the MusicBee bible.
