Why not Music>>artist>>album>>mp3s+cover.bmp?

This is what I have and it works a dandy.

I have always used this method for my album art and it works wonderfully! Here's a quick tip that I don't know whether or not has been mentioned before:

Instead of putting "D:\art\!album!" for example, put in "D:\art\!album!.100x100" for 100x100 album art. (Replace ! with

OK so tell me how to batch rename every bmp in the music directory to cover.bmp.  Because I've already crossed that bridge.  That's how I got the few I mentioned to work.  (by manually changing the names of the extracted files from "xport".  It exports the image fine but doesn't name them the way I need them to be.


SOOO....I already know that works like a dandy.  ::)

So I have the file structure and I have the .bmps in the file but they aren't recognised by the name the extraction program gave them.

To clarify I have:

Music>>artist>>album>>mp3+(wrong name).bmp  

x 1500 files

The name isn't really wrong, but it has too much information in it and it isn't recognised.

soap:
Are the files consistently named - or are they (pseudo)randomly named?

EDIT:
Ok, I'm off to bed.
The reason I ask is because I believe you can use the "find" command from a "DOS" prompt in Windows to find all files named xport.bmp and rename them to cover.bmp
The exact details of how to use the find command should be available on google.

blueskip:
They are named by xport as:

artist-album.mp3
