Now there are 2 ways you can add the folder.jpg images to your mp3 tags that we created with iArt. You can either just add artwork to those tracks that have a 0 in the art column, or you can replace any existing art with the folder.jpg images.
I’d recommend replacing all existing artwork as the folder.jpgs that were created from iTunes are probably better quality.
- Select all your files (or just the ones with no artwork if you’re confident they are good quality) and then click on ‘View’ and then ‘extended tags’
- In the window that pops up click on the ‘X’ ON THE RIGHT to delete all of the embedded art and then click ‘OK’. DO NOT Click ON THE ‘X’ on the left as this WILL DELETE ALL OF YOUR TAG INFORMATION. If you do happen to do this by mistake, then mp3tag has a handy undo option (‘Edit/Undo’) which can be used at any time if you do anything wrong.
Now that your mp3 tags are art free it’s time to import the better quality folder.jpg images that we created. To do this again select all of your tracks and click on the ‘Quick Actions’ icon in the toolbar. Choose ‘Import cover from file as your action’ and in the next window enter ‘folder.jpg’ as the name of the image to look for. mp3tag will now go away and add the correct high quality iTunes artwork to the embedded tag within your mp3 files.
