I was following another thread discussing issues showing album artwork after exporting xml from J River, but I decided to start another thread since I think my issue may be different. The other poster's XML appeared to have the correct image path, my XML file doesn't list the correct path.
I was having a problem where only the album name was showing up in the window - no image. After viewing the XML file, I discovered that the image file path was listed as "INTERNAL". I then went into J River and told it to import all of the artwork and save it as "folder.jpg". This caused J River to list the image as "folder.jpg", but it didn't provide the path. I manually modified this field by adding the full path and the album cover now shows up as expected.
The problem is that I obviously don't want to go through every song and modify the path. Secondly, I store all of my albums in a directory structure "music\artist\album\songs". Each album folder already contains a folder.jpg. How can I get J River to use this by default without telling it to redownload every image?
I'm getting closer - just not quite there.
