Embedcover-0.1 released

Embedcover is a command tool to automatically embed album cover images into music files. It now only supports MP3 audio files and grabs album arts from Douban(http://www.douban.com) using Douban API.

Requires
2.3 <= Python < 3.0
mutagen (a Python module to handle audio metadata.)

Install
Make sure you have Python 2.x and mutagen installed.


   $ sudo python setup.py install

How to use:

  Usage: embedcover [options]
  Options:
    -h, --help            show this help message and exit
    -v, --verbose         be verbose(the default)
    -q, --quiet           be quiet
    -r, --recursive       deal with directories recursively
    -d DIRECTORY, --dir=DIRECTORY
                          the directory with music files to deal with

Example


  $ embedcover -r -d ~/music

Handle all MP3 files under ~/music and subdirectories

Note
To grab the correct album art, you’d better have the album titles specified in the ID3 tag of the music files.
