Hi,

I guess the picture is embedded in the id3v2 tag at the beginning of
the file. It should be possible with id3lib to extract the tag. But
id3lib is based on C++ and also a bit buggy, I think the mplayer guys
don't want to link it into mplayer.

BTW I don't know any ID3v2 editor for linux that utilizes the embedded
picture feature. I'm working on the easytag project, at least we don't
use it.
