you're both right. i tried a fresh portable install and it works. i guess some option or maybe other component is interfering on my main install? 

edit: file>preferences>display>default user interface>always show notification icon is the culprit. if i turn that off, it works as expected.

but a few thoughts:

$if($or($stricmp(%artist%,traditional),$stricmp(%artist%,anonymous)),,%artist%)

simply configure the artist art in the core options with c:\path\to\wsh_data\artists\%artist%\*.*

I just discovered that about 33% of my images did not come over to the new directory, and about 22% of .txt files did not come over. I'm baffled as to why: the popup summary didn't show any failures or find any existing files (nor should it have). The reported tracks in my library was accurate, but the artist count is not the same as what foobar2000 reports. Yesterday I assumed that the artist count mismatch was a result of having artists with no images (of which I have many), but in looking at the script I think it should report the same number of artists as my facets column. I looked over the script and don't see anything that jumps out as a problem, keeping in mind I'm a script amateur.  Of the artists that are missing images and folders, the artist names do not have unusual characters, nor can I find any pattern to the misses. From what I can tell, the script seemed to skip an entire artist folder when it missed something, as opposed to just bringing over some of the images in an artist folder.

My gut tells me there is something different I need to do with the artist tf - I have lots of albums with multiple artists - but I'm not sure what else to try since $meta_branch(artist) and %<artist>% are both unrecognized by the script.

Suggestions appreciated!
