This a moot issue since as you note moOde 6.2 is able to display the previously missing coverart.
However, for the benefit of others, here's what was going on:
It doesn't take a multiple-transcoding process to "fix" the FLAC file. The CLI tool metaflac can do the surgery required:
et voilà !

This a moot issue since as you note moOde 6.2 is able to display the previously missing coverart.
However, for the benefit of others, here's what was going on:
- vinyl LPs were digitized using Vinyl Studio.
- Vinyl Studio saved the digital tracks as FLAC files, filling in the metadata from lookups on the Internet
- once among the comments in a FLAC block type VORBIS_COMMENT, with the comment-field name METADATA_BLOCK_PICTURE and base64 encoded image data in the comment-field value (may have been uuencode rather than base64 data, didn't bother to check)
- once in a FLAC block type METADATA_BLOCK_PICTURE with jpeg data and appropriate picture metadata.
It doesn't take a multiple-transcoding process to "fix" the FLAC file. The CLI tool metaflac can do the surgery required:
Code:
pi@moode:~ $ metaflac --remove-tag=METADATA_BLOCK_PICTURE xxx.flac
et voilà !
