Automatic album art management with bliss
October 27, 2009 in album art by Dan Gravell
bliss is almost ready for release. Our intrepid beta testers and I have been throwing it all at bliss over the past few weeks. We've found some bugs and also the time to add some extra features.I thought it was a good time to show you how bliss automatically manages album art for my music collection
I want my music collection to contain album art. I want it all embedded in the music files, and I want it all saved in a file prefixed 'cover' (this is a Squeezebox thing). I don't care about the size of the art, but I'd rather have something.
All these requirements are defined in bliss's cover art 'rule'. Here's how it looks:


Some it isn't sure about, because either the tag doesn't describe the album properly or it's a rare recording, so bliss asks me...

The best bit? If I change how I want my album art stored I just change the rule and let bliss do all the work!
Reminds me of a song...
