Title: Determine if album has artwork with formatting?
Post by: mccarthyk on 2013-01-23 08:19:24
Is there any way, using the formatting tags/ language to find out if a song has artwork or not?  I am trying to make sure that all of my music has an album cover, but I don't want to go through album by album checking.

it's not possible with title formatting.

but you can add a facets (http://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_facets) panel to your layout and group by album. this can display your whole library with thumbnails of artwork. you can then see at a glance what is missing.

Thanks a lot, man.  I already use facets so that was super easy.
