Hi, is it possible to create an action to adjust cover art only if the size of the cover is bigger than 400kb?

You could filter for files with  
%\_cover\_size% GREATER 400000  
and then apply an action.  
It is not possible to set a cover size in bytes with an action, you have to modify the dimensions.

This is what i do now but i was wondering if there was a way to only apply the adjust action to files which are exceeding the 400kb.

Yes i am aware.  
Or the type (PNG, JPEG) 😉

\*Actually i use this filter `"$div(%_cover_size%,1024)" GREATER 400'kb'`
