Hi there!

I didn't fully understand the description on how to create  
a batch job (action?) etc... 😲

Just an example:  
What I'd like to do is extract/delete/import all cover art pictures from  
my collection into the same directory as the audio file:

TFF - Shout.M4A

should give two files:

TFF - Shout.M4A  
TFF - Shout.jpg

I've encoded my huge .WAV collection to .M4A and added pictures to the files.  
Now I want to re-encode my whole collection from .WAV to .M4A or .AAC again  
but keep the pictures I've already found...

Is this possible with MP3TAG?

/Frank
