Enhancement: option to download even if already embedded

pidiggy opened this issue · comments

The Synology Audio Station requires jpg file in the same folder as album (not embedded in mp3 file).

Appears that if CoverFinder.scan_file finds artwork embedded in the mp3 file, it skips the download even with --test option is set.

Perhaps it could download the album cover art when a new "album_art" option is set true even if there is art-work embedded in the file.

I like this idea, I'll try adding a "force" option, will update you when it's live. Would it be okay if the "force" option replaced existing embedded artwork (as opposed to adding additional embedded art to the mp3 file)?

This should be fixed as well now- if you run with --force at the commandline (or set force to True for CoverFinder()), then it will allow downloading/embedding regardless of existing embedded artwork.

Ok thanks I will try it this weekend and give feedback.

Hi, can I close this issue? I got confirmation from another user that force is working, but I wanted to check with you as well.
