I am building a project using FFmpeg and using the the following command
ffmpeg -i “input.flac” -b:a 320k "output.mp3"This command copies all metadata to the mp3 and converts the front cover from jpg to png but I need the same cover file while converting FLAC to mp3.
FFmpeg is a command-line tool for converting audio and video files from one format to another. When converting from one audio format to another, such as FLAC to MP3, FFmpeg may make changes to the audio data in order to achieve a certain level of quality or to meet the requirements of the target format.
For example, when converting from FLAC to MP3, FFmpeg may apply a lossy compression algorithm to the audio data in order to reduce the size of the resulting file. This can result in a change in the quality of the audio, as well as a change in the size of the file.
Got it! But in my case, it changes the front cover image of the file during the conversion process.
There can be various reasons, such as resizing the image to fit the requirements of the target format or applying a different image compression algorithm to the image data.
It’s worth noting that when converting from one format to another, it is generally expected that there will be some loss of quality or changes to the file. This is because different formats have different capabilities and requirements, and converting from one format to another often involves quality and file size trade-offs.
Do let me know if this solves your query.
