Hi, I am using Windows Media Player 11. My album art is downloaded from the WMP11 in the format "AlbumArt\_{0C2xxxx}\_Large.jpg" etc. Thing is, I have a single folder for all of my mp3's. And all of these album art files are stored over there as well. I am confused about the "format string for image filename". What exactly should I type over there to get the relative album art for each mp3. I am not too sure about the only 'folder.jpg' etc. And haven't tried it because I seriously don't want to mess up the album art of all those mp3's....

Wildcard characters (like the Kleene star \*) are not supported in the format string, so you need to rename your album art to folder.jpg or something similar generic prior to importing.
