FLAC::File::removePictures not work

[Anthony Liu]

Thanks for your prompt reply, however I still have some troubles in removing
mp4 cover art;

I programmatically added 70 1600X1200 jpg files to a small mp4 clip, the
file size increased from 0.09 to 35 MB after saving.
I tried to remove the covers like this:

        MP4::File f(strName, false );

MP4::Tag *mp4Tag = f.tag();
if ( mp4Tag && !mp4Tag->isEmpty() )
{
MP4::ItemListMap map = mp4Tag->itemListMap();
MP4::ItemListMap::Iterator it = map.begin();
for ( ; it != map.end(); ++it )
mp4Tag->RemoveItme( (*it).first );

if ( !f.save() )
  printf( ("Fail to save") );
}

The code did remove the mpeg4 tag as well as the covers, but the file size
is still 35MB. I think the covers have been invalidated but their binary
data were still stored in the file.

I am not sure it was the fault of the above code or it was caused by a bug
of Taglib.
