Unable to add artwork to `.ogg` [vorbis] file about mutagen HOT 9 CLOSED

@phw Thank you your kind support. I have no more words to express my feeling towards you. You solved a problem due to which I was struggling from many days.

Glad I could help :)

First you should use a flac.Picture and not the APIC ID3 frame.

Then the data needs to be encoder as a base64 ASCII string. See this code for an example:

I updated the code still it's not adding artwork. [doesn't print errors]

class AddMetaData:
    """
    Adds metadata to audio file
    :param file: file path
    :param art_url: album art url
    """
    def __init__(self, file, art_url):
        art_data = requests.get(art_url).content
        audio = OggVorbis(file)
        pic = Picture()
        pic.type = 3
        pic.mime = "image/jpeg"
        pic.data = art_data
        pic_data = pic.write()
        pic_data = base64.b64encode(pic_data).decode("ascii")
        audio["metadata_block_picture"] = [pic_data]
        audio.save(file)

Yep, your code is correct. That will ad the image. How do you determine that it did not work?

For a full working example this here adds the tag properly:

import base64
import requests
from mutagen.oggvorbis import OggVorbis
from mutagen.id3 import PictureType
from mutagen.flac import Picture


class AddMetaData:
    """
    Adds metadata to audio file
    :param file: file path
    :param art_url: album art url
    """

    def __init__(self, file, art_url):
        art_data = requests.get(art_url).content
        audio = OggVorbis(file)
        pic = Picture()
        pic.type = PictureType.COVER_FRONT
        pic.mime = "image/jpeg"
        pic.data = art_data
        pic_data = pic.write()
        pic_data = base64.b64encode(pic_data).decode("ascii")
        audio["metadata_block_picture"] = [pic_data]
        audio.save(file)


file = "./music.ogg"
art_url = "https://fanart.tv/media/overview/5.jpg"

AddMetaData(file, art_url)

Check the result with MP3Tag or Picard to check the tag is present.
