Thank you so much for this! :smiley: Worked through it again and have it working... almost! I'm in just downloading the artist image and saving this in the artist folder. Currently it will save it to the album folder, do you know if it's possible to change the syntax to save it up one folder? e.…

This is what I found so far: /ar "%artist%" /p "$replace(..\,%_filename_ext%,)%%artist%%.%%extension%%" It saves the pic one folder up from the track files folder. It also keeps the original extension of the pic. It depends how your files are organized. If the parent folder isn't what your lookin…

[image] useonlythedrugs: %artist%" /p "$replace(%_path%,%_filename_ext%,)%%artist%%.jpg This seems like what I'm looking to do, but I am not that knowledgeable, maybe someone can help? All of my music is in a "D Drive" so it's D:\New Audio followed by artist, album, files... I want to apply t…
