Hi all,

I know mp3tag can (almost) do everything - how about this ?

Johann Strauss wrote 479 pieces of music, I have all as mp3-filess, some multiple by different artists, names as follows:  
Strauss-J2\_op354\_Wiener\_Blut\_artist\_1.mp3  
Strauss-J2\_op354\_Wiener\_Blut\_artist\_2.mp3  
Strauss-J2\_op354\_Wiener\_Blut\_artist\_3.mp3

For all I have jpg-files with an explanation of the opus with the name  
Strauss-J2\_op354.jpg (substring of filename) which should appear for each artist's version.

With 1by1 this one jpg-file is shown in all different mp3-files (file-name starting with identical Strauss-J2\_op354).

I know how to integrate them into the mp3-files manually with mp3tag - but approx. 500 times ...

Who can help ? What is the more efficient, elegant and less boring way ?

Thanks and regards, Bernd.
