Hi all - am starting to become a Quicksilver convert. However, one thing that is bugging me, is that not all of my iTunes album art seems to flow through to QS. Some is there (typically ones I've added manually), yet the majority isn't.

Has anyone else experienced similar and discovered any solutions?
Thanks
Richard
 
Try using this Embed Artwork AppleScript.

Explanation:
iTunes has changed the way that album artwork is associated with music files. Previous versions embedded the artwork in the file itself, whereas now by default the artwork is stored only once for the album and "linked" via the iTunes database. Quicksilver only handles the old embedded artwork format. You can use a script from Doug's Applescripts [[dougscripts.com]] to embed artwork in files. This also has the advantage of making the artwork "portable"; it'll still be there if you transfer the files to another computer/drive/iTunes Library, etc. (at the expense of making the files slightly larger) or if you have to rebuild your iTunes library for some reason.

Hope it works for you!
