Hi all,

I can do most things very fast with the keyboard in mp3tag, a big exception is the " **cover art**" feature for which I haven't found a **shortcut** yet (FAQ and search did not help).  
Am I overlooking sth or is there simply no shortcut?

Another problem is the **limitation to 3 cover sources** , a lot of covers (e.g. french, italian) are thus impossible to find. Would it be difficult to include a user defined web site list in "File - Options" or simply add a few of the major amazon sites to the existing list? Here again a shortcut for the favorite source would greatly help.

Thanks for your help,  
tfor

You can get more cover search scripts from  
[/t/1681/1](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/1681/1) and  
[/c/web-sources-scripts](https://community.mp3tag.de/c/web-sources-scripts)

If you want a keyboard shortcut for a script rename the .src file and add an ampersand before your desired shortcut character:

Cover Art#Amazon.com.src  
to  
**&** Cover Art#Amazon. **&** com.src

Then you can press ALT+S, C, C  
(ALT+S depends on your language in Mp3tag)

Cover Art\_Amazon. **&** com.src  
makes it only ALT+S, C

or with a number  
**&** 1 Cover Art\_Amazon.com.src
