Batch Attach Pictures - One level/folder up?

Is there a way to embed "..\600*.jpg" instead of just "600x600.jpg"?

I keep compilation albums this way:

Artist
-Albums
--Compilation Album
--600x600.jpg
--800x800.jpg
--1000x1000.jpg
--1500x1500.jpg
---D1
---D2
---Dn


So it would be awesome to be able to do that instead of copying the jpg inside the Dn album folder.

Thanks.

@Peter, is there a way to embed "..\600*.jpg" when "600*.jpg" is not present in the folder?



Thank you.

Works for me.

Used the very same pattern and 600x600.jpg from the parent folder got attached.

Can you please make a copy of the problematic folder tree, replace actual content with some placeholders, zip it up and send to me for looking into?

@Case double checked yesterday as well and he said it didn't work for him either. Let me check again few times.

All the "temp" music I process/clean/rename etc. is on "D:\Music\ToDo" btw.

edit:

Ok, got the issue, sorry I didn't remember about this, the problem is that the 600x600.jpg doesn't get copied over with "* Copy other files: 600*.jpg;..\600*.jpg". "..\600*.jpg" seems to not be working there. Is there a way to make that work?

Example:

Starting from/to convert from...

D:\Music\eahm\Aerosmith\Compilation\2002 - O, Yeah! Ultimate Aerosmith Hits (Compilation)
-D1
--FLACs
-D2
--FLACs
-600x600.jpg

So, now I'm not sure why Case said it didn't work for him.

Thank you.

No problem, these things happen to all of us.

I'll look into referencing files in parent folders in Converter.

Also "Batch Attach Pictures" does need a review/rework, it doesn't show much feedback about what it did for an example.

Thank you for the Beta 1 added feature/fix, will test asap.

edit:

Actually, already tested and it works perfectly!
