Hi, the old MP3 player I use in my car chokes on skipping to/from tracks with album art on them, whats the easiest way to strip all the album art from all the files that are on the MP3 player?

Linux Mint 13.

according to this blog entry:
http://www.infofreako.info/2010/10/h...-command-line/
it seems that the "eyeD3" utility can do that.
without checking, the command for that seems to be:

Code:

eyeD3 --to-v2.4 --remove-image --no-color some.mp3

after installing, read eyeD3's documentation!!!

ps:
yes, i did a web search for you. the search terms were "linux strip album art from mp3" and i used the privacy-respecting ixquick.com engine.

Also it may be that the discrete files are in folders too. Some grep sort of script maybe to get them off.
