Describe the issue

In audiobookshelf I swapped the original Audible cover with a cover without the "Only on Audible" part. When I use the Embed Metadata function I expect the cover in the file to change to the clean cover, but upon checking the file it still contains the original cover with the ugly "Only on Audible" part.

Steps to reproduce the issue

  1. Have an audiobook with a cover
  2. Change the cover in audiobookshelf
  3. Use to Embed Metadata function
  4. Check if the cover is updated or not

Audiobookshelf version

v2.2.8

How are you running audiobookshelf?

Docker
