Locate files with missing cover art?
« on: September 07, 2004, 07:28:49 pm »
How can I quickly locate songs that don't have cover art associated with them? Then how can I select them to be able to provide it easily?

[Image File]=""

This should work.

You would want to use that in a smartlist. That will show all files with no images.

Dragyn, I don't see any image that you refer to on your post. Take a look at it and edit it. Thanks!

I'm not posting an image.

In Playlists, you would want to create a Smartlist (right-click Playlists, then click on Smartlist) and use the rule I posted above. This will show all audio tracks that don't have an image file associated with them.

I don't have v8 installed but I think that rule is the same throughout  MJ/MC.

Ahhh, now I get what you meant!
But, I'm still having a little problem with it.
I created a smartlist and when I select it I get an empty list with SEARCH: and SUMMARY: above the list.  

At the SEARCH field I entered  
[Image File]=""

then the SUMMARY field shows
Any: Image File=

but there are no songs listed below even though I have quite a few without cover art. What am I doing wrong now?
