How to add image to file format .mp3 on a Mac?

I use a Mac and have artwork I would like to add as images to sound .mp3 file.

I am aware that I can create a .mov file using QuickTime media player which is already built-in on my Mac, but I’d just like to attach art, not translate the whole file into a new format.

What tools or scripts or apps can do this task?

There are several places you can do this:

• within iTunes. Simply right click, select Get Info, then select the artwork tab and select “Add Artwork”

• from Get Info (Finder). Right (Option) click the file and select Get Info. Choose Artwork, then select Add Artwork. Select the art work you would like to embed.

• in VLC. Go to Media Information screen CommandI which will bring up a window of all the tags including artwork. Simply drag your artwork to add it.

• via a tag editor like Music Brainz Picard. You can easily add the Artwork by dragging it to the artwork “field” in the editor and save it.

• command line via ffmpeg

  ffmpeg -i musicfile.mp3 -i coverart.png -c copy -metadata:s:v title="Album Cover"-metadata:s:v comment="Album Art " musicfile.mp3
