MC can automatically link external cover art if the image file's name and path matches with the set cover art location option. The available options in "Tools > Options > File Location > Cover Art" are as follows:
Audio Mode: In a specified folder
- cover art is stored in a single (dedicated) cover art folder (the folder location may be changed from its default setting)
- the filename must match the Album Artist (auto) - Album rule, for example: "The Beatles - Abbey Road.jpg" or "(Multiple Artists) - Moulin Rouge.jpg"
Audio Mode: In the same folder as the file (as Folder.jpg)
- cover art is stored in the same folder as the audio file
- the filename must be Folder.jpg
Audio Mode: In the same folder as the file
- cover art is stored in the same folder as the audio file
- the filename must match the Album Artist (auto) - Album rule, for example: "The Beatles - Abbey Road.jpg" or "(Multiple Artists) - Moulin Rouge.jpg"
The command "Tools > Cover Art > Quick Find In File / Cover Art Directory" can associate an audio track with an image file. The cover art filename and location must be consistent with the File Location > Cover Art rule currently selected. This command is useful when the audio file is not currently linked to a cover art file.
