Another newbie Q as I get up to speed, this time on cover art.
My current art is not bad at all, so many years ago I did a decent job adding covers manually. Not every album will be that way of course, and a lot of the art is simply from an earlier era of compression and could perhaps be improved. I’m also keen as a new user to see what the Picard cover art searches will offer up to me.
I’m quickly getting stumped however, after trying different agents and in different orders. Too many times I’m offered a small file size to replace something larger and of decent quality (despite setting 1200px as my preference). This feels like a fundamental issue.
So I have to ask, is this a weak link in Picard? Am I missing something obvious? Anyone else crack the code here? Is another tool better for this part of the job? I’m on a Mac by the way.
As well, is there an option for me to simply keep the existing cover? It would be great if I were given a couple of options, including the existing one, so I could click what looks like the best cover and I could move on to the next album.
I’ll do some more searching, but I’ve already spent a couple of hours poking and prodding, and thought I’d reach out on this.
Thanks.
