# Auto Search for Artwork

This function is used to search for artwork based on the metadata of the selected files. Note that all files must be in the same album. The largest artwork possible will be downloaded and will be scaled down if a scaling option was set in Preferences-Artwork.

Searches for artwork on albums with various artists tend to do poorer than searches for albums with consistent artists. Note that the Album Artist field is given higher priority than the Artist field.

Warning: This function is by no means perfect. It is possible that no artwork will be found or that incorrect artwork will be returned. For this reason be careful when using the function in an action, particularly while batch processing.
