Hello...

If possible could you write out the format for that action?

Thanks.

Recently, I removed covers from a few songs with the Remove Field action set to "cover". It seems to have worked. I gather from this thread that "PICTURE" is the way to do this. How is "cover" different from "PICTURE"?

There is no difference. COVER is an alias for PICTURE.
