it would be great to get more flexibility to set the album arts.
many people save their covers like "artists-album-year-cover.jpeg"
what about adding the possibility to set it like "*-cover.jpeg" ?

I'm not 100% sure how it works, but in Edit > Preferences > Tags (1):

Under Artwork storage there is an option to "copy to the same folder as the music file and name as" with a text box where you can type in a file pattern. Whether the option is checked or not, whatever you type in there gets added to the "Album cover search rules" list on the right-hand side.

If you type "*-cover.jpg" into that field, does it work?
Bee excellent to each other...

i use that option to store my albumarts which musicbee downloads while listening..
for example:
xxx:\_musicbee_albumarts\AlbumArts\$Group($Sort(<Album Artist>),1)\_musicbee_hunt_<Artist><Album>.jpg

it would be great to set multiple options in "set retrieval filters". like *-cover.jp*" and *-front..." *-back..." etc.
atm its very limited!
