That doesn't seem to be working for me with either flac or mp3. The properties text doesn't change when I try to overwrite it. I did compile with tagwriting enabled and I have gst-plugins-good-0.10.6 installed. From the document you linked to, it looks like I need to have id3v2mux and flactag installed. Gentoo doesn't have a package with either name, so are there files I can check my system for to see if those are installed? > G> Also if there is cover art that I have but is not found by > G> rhythmbox, is the best thing to do to name it and add it to > G> .gnome2/rhythmbox/covers or is there another way? > > Did you enable the cover art plugin?
