    Possible to use the "Run External" utility and pass dBpa's Path setting?

    I use Album Art Downloader XUI to download high quality album covers. It has the ability to initiate a search with command line operators.
    It can take:
    Artist
    Album
    Save In Path

    Right now I can use:
    [COLOR="grey"]/artist "[album artist]" /album "[album]"[/COLOR]
    to pass it the correct search parameters. It would be awesome to be able to pass it:
    [COLOR="grey"]/artist "[album artist]" /album "[album]" /path "[path]\[album artist]\[album]\folder.jpg"[/COLOR]
    where [path] is the path as defined by the user in the dBpoweramp settings.

    Is there a Naming variable I'm missing? Or is it not available yet? Thanks.

    You only have the full filenames, you might be able to use:
    [TRIMLASTFOLDER][outfile][]\folder.jpg

      Awesome. That almost worked perfectly. The string that works; for anyone who stumbles on this thread is:
      [COLOR="grey"]/artist "[IFVALUE]album artist,[album artist],[artist][]" /album "[album]" /path "[TRIMLASTFOLDER][outfile][]folder.jpg"[/COLOR]
      TRIMLASTFOLDER leaves the trailing forward-slash so there's no need for it before folder.jpg.

      Thanks Spoon.
