Description Sam 2005-12-10 15:57:17 UTC
Version:           1.3.7 (using KDE KDE 3.5.0)
Installed from:    Slackware Packages
OS:                Linux

Everytime I try to unset an image, it tells me it has done so and nothing happens. The cover Art stays unless I replace it.
Comment 1 Seb Ruiz 2005-12-10 23:51:38 UTC
You either have cover art embedded in your id3 tag, or an image lying in the same folder as the audio file.

I'll rename the bug report because the action is misleading.
Comment 2 Sam 2005-12-12 01:51:05 UTC
There isnt a picture in the folder and shouldn't amarok be able to erase that part of the song's id3 tag?

btw, thanks for renaming my bug, It makes more sense the way it is now.

No, we can't alter id3 tags like that.  Markey's script will soon be able to 
remove them however.
Comment 4 Sam 2005-12-12 01:58:05 UTC
Oh, well I do look forward to that thank you. Some Things I really wish didn't have album art because it's not right and there isn't the right one. thank you.
Comment 5 Seb Ruiz 2005-12-12 02:01:15 UTC
I'm going to reopen the bug, because we still do pretend to let the user remove the artwork.
Comment 6 Alexandre Oliveira 2006-01-08 02:06:25 UTC
"No, we can't alter id3 tags like that."
Why not? If the user wants to delete/change the cover, we should remove it. Taglib does let us do that.

SVN commit 617196 by markey:

Don't physically delete custom cover images from the filesystem. Apparently users really don't like this, although it was originally meant as a feature.
