Is there a way to have the front album cover as the default 1st image to write? I get back cover as the first one that shows up with I open the album in mp3tag.
Note: This is on the tag panel
Thanks
AFAIK MP3tag shows the first embedded picture first, and then the next ones.
So it (currently) does not matter which type the picture has, but which position it has in the file.
There is (currently) no way to set the type of picture that the tag panel shows first.
In addition to @ohrenkino's answer:
You can set the "Front cover" only as first visible picture if you previously delete* all embedded covers and then re-add it in the order you want to see it. (1st add the "Front Cover", 2n add the "Back Cover" and so on.)
* Please extract all the embedded covers before you delete them and rename it accordingly. Just to make sure that you don't lose any cover art.
There is a trick to change pics order for main cover, without extracting and re-adding pics.
Let's say you have PIC1 and PIC2 and you want PIC2 to be the 1st one.
Click'n'drag PIC1, inside the cover box borders, to the left or right. A copy of PIC1 is made as 3rd, so you have PIC1 - PIC2 - PIC1.
Now delete/remove the 1st one. PIC2 becames the first.
Check from last to 1st every pic to be sure a copy was made, then delete the undesired 1st one.
... or to the top or the bottom.
There is another way to achieve your goal:
Just cut PIC1 and paste it again (right mouse4 click). This way there is no need for an addition step of deleting the first cover.
