How to add cover art to converted opus file? about lidarr-flac2mp3 HOT 6 CLOSED

The '-vn' option is stripping the image out. Not sure about writing it to a file.
If time permits, I'll see what I can find.

thanks for the answer! I tried removing the -vn parameter and the converted opus files still don't have the embedded art :( they look the same. For me there is no need to write it to a separate file, I just want to keep the album art inside the file tags as it was in the original .flac file.
thanks again

I knew I had looked at this before! It's an example in my Readme.

Replace the '-vn' with '-c:v libtheora -map 0 -q:v 10' keeping the other options intact.

Let me know how it goes.

Sadly same result :/

For the record, the full line I'm using now is:
. /usr/local/bin/flac2mp3.sh -a "-c:v libtheora -map 0 -q:v 10 -c:a libopus -b:a 192k" -e .opus

thanks

There is an old issue (#27) that goes into the weeds a bit about embedding cover art in Opus files. You could read through that and see if you find something useful. It is just not straightforward when using ffmpeg, I'm afraid.
I'm sorry I couldn't help more.

I've read the issue you mention and well my solution is described there! I'm very new to Lidarr, and I wasn't aware that it will parse newly downloaded files to complete its metadata. That is the case, and even if my opus files don't have cover art, after some minutes Lidarr will trigger the metadata update and the art will be there :) so, it's not a real "solution", but works perfectly fine for my needs, as I use flac2mp3 exclusively with Lidarr. Thanks for looking into the topic anyway! appreciated
