1) There are no automated methods of saving Album Art as this would too often result in the wrong album art. The first issue is how would you know what's the best match? In any case I assume that this could be scripted, but I warn ahead of any automated data gathering.

2) MediaMonkey 3, in testing, will be able to show different views of your music including album art views. As it's in a testing phase it might have bugs or minor errors so if you don't want to test you will need to wait till MediaMonkey 3 is released.

1 Auto-Download Cover-Art 2 How to get coverscripts to work

i got about 3000 CDs mostly as MP3. Now i got MM2.5, which is REALLY great. Two things i would like to realize:

1. Find missing art (COVER) for all CDs.
With "Batch art finder" i need to press next and save 3000 times.

a) Is there a way to download best matching picture (or first picture, whatever) and save it !!automatically!! ?

2. If i realized 1., i would like to browse the cover. For the manually tagged CDs i already have cover, and i try to use them:

-Pretty Pictures: simply doesnt show anything. Tried 3.X also, all i got are many access violations, but no covers displayed as well.
-Browse by art: shows covers, but pix are messed up. Like they are too much compressed, but in the MM-Cover-Windows they look perfect.

a) how can i set up the scripts to work correct? Especially PrettyPix ?

Thanks
