<Artwork> is available from the field selector in virtual tags creator.
Should the value returned ever be anything besides "Unknown Artwork" ?
Maybe something like "Cover", "folder", "Embedded" or "Linked" ?
(originally posted on Questions board)

Could the <Artwork> field in virtual tags be enabled to provide feedback on the MIME type of artwork, please?
A quick google of the bass library API says it can return the apic code for the picture type and even "-->" for the MIME type to show its a link rather than embedded artwork.

bummer  :(
I was hoping it was reading if MIME type file was attached and returned the picture type eg. Cover (front) or even just Y/N or T/ F so you could check for embedded artwork.

If I understand this correctly, then this is similar to this, or rather would enable something like this (?): https://getmusicbee.com/forum/index.php?topic=21265.0
In which case +1 from me as well.

Very old Wishlist but after reading a few other posts asking for similar functionality, I’m going to give this a +1

I have added a new read-only field "Artwork Location" that shows "Embedded" or the filename for the primary picture only

Hi Steven, thanks for adding this field. Sometimes it returns only "Y". Cannot figure out when or why that happens...
