Title: Look for covers in album folder and in all the sub folders of the album folder?
Post by: Biff on October 25, 2022, 22:36:22

Can Aimp look for all kind of images in the album folder and in all the sub folders of the album folder to show it in the player?

Could I in the "Album Arts" make this more efficient, use shorter code:

folder.*
folder.gif
folder.jpg
front.*
front.jpg
*cover*
*folder*
*front*
cover.*
covers.*
covers*
covers\*front*
Cover\*cover*
Cover\*folder*
Cover\*front*

Why not put things in order in the file storage?
If it is impossible to move cover files and write them to tags (relevant for distributed folders), then come up with a file name and specify it in the player settings. Then duplicate the images with this name next to the music files.

Yes:

Scan*\*
Scan*\*cover*
Scan*\*folder*
Scan*\*front*

This code may be replaced with

Scan*\*

It's too many albums I am afraid.

then come up with a file name and specify it in the player settings.

The same name for every image (to be shown as the cover), e.g. front.jpg?

Then duplicate the images with this name next to the music files.

So a duplicate in the album folder.

Many thanks! Corrected.

Suppose the sub folder(s) can have any name and Aimp shall look for images / covers independently of the name, so it shall look in EACH sub folder(s), would there be a single line of code which would do it instead of having these many lines I have at the moment? So Aimp shall use a cover that it finds either in the album folder or in any sub folder.

А толку? Всё равно шаблон нерабочий - подстановка в именах папок не поддерживается. Вот и приходится плодить scan\, scans\, art\, arts\ и т.д. Перепроверил на [2408], ничего не изменилось. В справке об этом ограничении вроде бы тоже не написано.
