Album images not transferring to iPhone X

Postby eiger3970 » 04 Feb 2024 09:43

Hello, I've added album images to the album directory and the songs, however transferring onto the iphone, only the audio and text comes across?
I added images from Linux File Manager and VLC.
My 3rd method via code has an error: Output file # 0 does not contain any stream

Code: Select all

linuxmint@linuxmint:~/Music/Album$ ffmpeg -i 01\ -\ Song\ Name\ -\ generic\ tune.ogg ~/Downloads/coverImage.jpg -map_metadata 0 -map 0 -map 1 -acodec copy 01\ -\ Song\ Name\ -\ generic\ tune.ogg

Tested saving image on VLC on Linux Mint 21.3 and Raspberry Pi 5 and images .jpg don't stay on music file after saving Metadata. Saving Metadata makes added text save onto the file.
