Hi  
How do you set Mp3Tag to show the art from the folder?  
I've looked in the "panels" without any clues.  
And ... Do you know how to import artcover as standalone in folder and not embedded?

You can find the option "Don’t display first image from file directory as cover art" in Tags

> **[Tags – Mp3tag Documentation](https://docs.mp3tag.de/customization/options/tags/#dont-display-first-image-from-file-directory-as-cover-art)**
>
> Documentation on Tags configuration options. Mp3tag is the universal Tag Editor.

Ensure that this option is **UN** selected in your case.

What do you mean with

> import artcover as standalone

Do you already have a cover in an album folder and want to import this picture into your selected tracks?

Maybe this Action can help you:

>
> Documentation on the Import Cover action type that can be performed as Quick Action or as reusable workflow from Action Groups. Mp3tag is the universal Tag Editor.

Or do you want to import cover art from an Online Source?
