Something along the line was keeping stale information in a database or cache somewhere, but I never figured out where exactly.Įdit: And just to clarify. I had a problem like this with my Media Monkey and iPod touch setup - I had to completely remove the files from the iPod, remove the old art from the files in MM, apply the new art, then resync the iPod. You might even try completely removing the files from your library and then adding them back in. It could be that your tagger/player isn't actually updating the art when you tell it to since the JPEG file sizes are identical. Then open them back up and apply the new, non-Progressive JPEG. Once you've got your non-Progressive JPEG ready to go, try completely removing the album art from the FLAC's using whatever tagger/player you use, saving the files, and exiting the program.
If that is indeed where the problem lies, my only other thought is that perhaps the embedded FLAC art didn't update as you expected when you removed the Progressive flag, or that your player isn't updating art info in its database. Were the problem JPEG's in fact flagged Progressive as I suspected? It sure looks like that's the problem to me.
