[QUOTE="rtv, post: 272106, member: 12309"] Since I really appreciate people who invest time to setup their music correct I decided to code a little tool which will save you lots of time. Please consider it just as a quick take it or leave it (at least for now). It cannot do any harm as it doesn't write anything on its own though. 1. Check and maybe correct the path to your folder thumbs 2. Enter the root directory which contains the directories of each artist. 3. Press "Scan". 4. Check the results. 5. Copy the folder.jpg you want to the thumbs\folder dir 6. doubleclick the entry in this tool to copy the Filename to your clipboard. 7. Use F2 on the folder.jpg to rename it by pasting the content of the clipboard buffer. Repeat 5-7 until all Artists have a thumb. This tool uses the exact same methods as MP to generate the unique filename for rapid lookups while browsing folders. So you should be able to "cover" every folder regardless whether there are music files in it or not. Enjoy ;) [/QUOTE]
