Album Cover Enhancement
For those of us with VERY large music collections to have to manually go in and tell the program what the correct album cover is takes WAY too long.
It just took me an hour to do less than 10!!
To make this work better why does the program not scan the same directory that the song is found in for an image file (jpg, gif, etc) FIRST and if one
is not found then look in the CDDB? Not only are many of the album covers missing for albums I have but there are many which are just plain wrong.
This is very frustrating to say the least.
It does not seem to me like this would be a very difficult enhancement nor very time consuming. So what do you say? This would likely save many
people a lot of their valuable time that could be better enjoyed listening to their music rather than setting up this to work completely and
accurately.

I also request that since a very long time, maybe 2 years now! Normally Audiosoft plan to finally add a scanning in the album directory for a
cover.jpg file...
How soon will it be ready? I don't know. But i'm sure you will not wait for that a so long time than me!

Yes I also hate to lookup for covers if they are allread within the mp3 folders. Thats for me a great waste of time. I would like to have a
customizeable function to look for covers within the folder where the mp3 is stored:
- folder.jpg / folder.gif
- cover.jpg
- first picture file in folder
...
Are there plans like that?

eJukebox already supports cover.jpg as of v3.80. If there is a cover.jpg in the album's folder...eJukebox will use it for the image when you
build or refresh your music database.

Windows use folder.jpg to display the image als folder art. I dont want to create a cover.jpg for jukebox and a folder.jpg for windows.
Would it be possible to use folder.jpg if no cover.jpg is found?

I second that one. "Folder.jpg" is also used in tag&rename so if ej could use folder.jpg in addition, it would be terrific.. .

Good idea. i agree too, that would be perfect! 
I just hope that will not slow down too significantly the scanning process...
