[mutagen] Extract just front cover APIC

[klo]

Hi,

I tried mutagen to get embed cover from mp3.
Package seems robust but no documentation can I found, except trivial examples

So I try to extract cover:

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
from mutagen.id3 import ID3
f = ID3(<my mp3 file>).getall('APIC')
open('dump', 'wb').write(f[0].data)
========================================

This way I always get last APIC frame. Last in sense if I open mp3 with hex editor then I get last APIC frame

How do I tell mutagen I want type 3 APIC (front cover) only?

TIA

Well, I looked in APIC class before asking, but couldn't find my way assigning type=3 :(
What I should have done, is to snip in QL source :)

Thanks
