I have an export script that export manually created field

I'm figuring how I can export album art of individual songs before running the script below.

$filename(D:\Desktop\1.md5,utf-8)$loop(%\_path%)%md5cover% %\_folderpath%folder.jpg  
$loopend()

To export a cover, you have to use the action "Export cover to file".

> **[Export Cover to File – Mp3tag Documentation](https://docs.mp3tag.de/actions/export-cover/)**
>
> Documentation on the Export Cover action type that can be performed as Quick Action or as reusable workflow from Action Groups. Mp3tag is the universal Tag Editor.

It is not possible to do this with an export script as the result of an export is always some kind of plain text file.
