Is it possible? F’rinstance: I change out Album Art, and I’d love to assign Ctrl+B (I believe it’s currently Unused) to do the mouse action of Tag Sources → Cover Art → Discogs Artist & Album.

I don’t know nothing about programming, but I’ve seen Keyboard Shortcut augmentation pages in other platforms. I was hoping it could be done here- I’ve got another 800 or so bands that need cover art added/changed.

Thanks! I love MP3Tag!

This is not possible with a 2-key combination. There is the possibility of having shortcuts in the sources menue. The third part of the key-combination is defined by the letter with an underscore.  
By renaming the actions or websources you have influence on the key.

Get@Cover as a name would underline the C in the menue and you could press  
ALT-S-C  
to call that websource.

Perhaps _`CTRL-i`_ helps you. This shortcuts calls the last called websource.

Anyway: `CTRL-B` is not free.
