Import covers from folder without #COVER-Tag in txt (feature request)

[m4akus]

Issue type: Feature request

Actual behaviour

Currently covers are only displayed if the are defined in the song-.txt file with the #COVER-Tag.

Expected behaviour

In UltraStar Deluxe Song-Covers are not only accepted in the .txt file but also automaticlly displayed if they are in the same folder as the .txt file and the file-name ends with [CO].

For example:
AnnenMayKantereit x Parcels - Can’t Get You Out Of My Head [CO].jpg

That would work great with the newly implemented zip-download https://usdb.animux.de/ offers.
The ZIP-File contains a folder for each song which itself contains the song-.txt file and the above mentioned cover.

I agree. I was thinking about automatically using image files in the same folder as cover.

However, the [CO] suffix feels unusual / not needed to me.

I would instead search for a file named "cover" first, then any other image.
Media players (Aimp, Winamp, VLC) also often show these as album art.

This has been implemented for the Steam release

This could be further enhanced by reading the artwork embedded in the audio file, if available.
