Hi, Since many albums on my iPhone show the back cover instead of the front cover I investigated and noticed that in all these cases the cover type was not "Back cover" but "Other". So I started changing them all back to "Back cover" only to find that that change does not stick. I would change it, …

This does not address my issue as far as I can tell. The link given signals a problem with cover art being saved as front cover only in mp3. Moreover, it is ancient.

I don't know ... It says [image] Embedded Album Art in AAC Tags I've tried 2.41b on 3 different computers and I cannot change a second image to anything other than "Front Cover" on any AAC (m4a) files. Can anyone else confirm this? ... which says "m4a" and not MP3. And then it describes …

You are quite right, I always get confused when I see mpX and assume it refers to mp3. Nevertheless, the thread refers to a Nero issue (what is that?) and was resolved in 2008!

I noticed that with recent rips I did not have this problem. The ones that do have the problem are probably all converts from .flac to m4a. So I extracted the Back cover from some .m4a files, deleted it from the files and reintroduced it setting the cover type to Back Cover. It made no difference, w…

In the context menu of the file list there is a function to optimize mp4 files - see if that helps.

Thanks for the suggestion. I optimised the files and then changed the tag again from Other to back. It did not work.

Embedded Album Art in AAC Tags Support

Hi Florian, My m4a files are encoded by Nero, using Mp3tag 2.41a to embed the front and back album art. All album art shows as "Front Cover". If I try to change it, the change shows in the window, but as I soon I press save, it reverts back to "Front Cover". Is this expected behavior? Embedding works fine with my FLAC & MP3 files. Thanks, Dirk Edit: Apologies for not posting in "Bug" forum. I thought that was where I was at until after pressing the post button.
