A tool to mass-convert embedded album art to cover.bmp's automatically?

Chronon:
Oh yes.  I actually use MP3Tag, but not for this purpose.  Thanks for the reminder!

rangi_chip:
Don't mention.

I don't know what version you are using, but it is always being updated with new features. You can find the very lastest here http://www.anytag.de/forums/index.php?showtopic=57

It seems like there are several good programs to extract art and resize them, but not one that converts it to a bitmap. I may not have played around with faststone enough ... I see it can do multiple folders, although various media players I've used have dumped their own images into the album folders that don't really need to be made into bitmaps.

The nice thing about using the modified Album Art Tagger is it extracts the album art and creates a bitmap all in one program.  It's not a standalone app, I wrote a simple jpg/png to bitmap command line utility and modified the Tagger script to call it every time it extracts an image to create a bitmap and remove the jpg/png. I passed along my code to the author of the script, maybe he'll implement in into the official release.

IrfanView can convert to/from different formats including BMP and JPG.  I've used it to Mass/batch convert all album arts to different sizes and formats.

Here is a tool made by me that can mass-convert embedded album art to bmp's.

Someone with write access can list it in the wiki... i ask for write permission on IRC some time ago but didn't receive any response.
