I think everything is said in the thread you already mentioned:

> Hi there everyone... I've been looking to convert my cover art files (various-filenames.JPG) to folder.jpg as an action within MP3Tag. All my mp3 files are sorted: SHARE//artist/album/tracknumber - trackname.mp3 Within the ALBUM directory sits a xyz.jpg file as cover. However, the filenames vary. I would like to automatically rename all jpg files within directories (incl. subdirectories) to folder.jpg Has anyone got an idea how to go about it intelligently? Thanks for the efford to help me…

As jpg-files do not have any MP3 tags, MP3tag cannot really deal with them except using the properties returned by the OS.
