To find the files without embedded covers in MP3tag use the filter %\_covers% MISSING You then may use an action of the type "Import cover from file" with the Format string: `*.jpg` to get any file that may reside in the file's folder as cover - if you have folder.jpg then most likely that one will be taken. Toggle the filter to find those files where there really is no embedded cover, not even after the import. I fear there is then no way around it but to look for the covers again and really embed them.
