Just to add some user experience If you define an artwork & lyrics folder then MAI will attempt to download and store as follows Artist Art - will create an image file titled “artist name as LMS wants”.png/jpg however if no image is found it will create a zero length file with the suffix .missing

With respect this discussion should move to the MAI thread. Material just displays what MAI gives it but bear this in mind - the number of name variations in classical music is enormous. Even if MAI could cope with Composer in the way that you ask you would have to ensure that your tags matched
