hi
i've developed a small plugin for myself that downloads artist and album art for selected tracks the plugin itself works ok, but i can't get foobar to show artist arts from parent folder i've tried adding "../artist.jpg" to patterns, but it doesn't work is it possible to do? cause i don't like the idea to store artist art in every album folder |

Try something like the following but adapted to your path and assuming the jpg is saved as the artist name.
C:\artists\%artist%.jpg This post has been edited by WilB: Jan 20 2013, 20:39 |
