Force Local Media Assets for Cover (Music)

Is there a way to force Plex to use Local Media Assets for Corverart for an album?
I found some Topics about it. Like “Please make adding music to a library more sane” and many more but is there a clear way to do it?

I can set them manually sure but if i need to do the “Plex Dance” i need to redo all again. Kinda anoying. Basically i wish it would use the an image which is set in the same folder as the album as the cover art.
The embeded cover art is 500x500 but the image which is inside the folder is 1500x1500 (3000x3000 is avaible on my local too for insanity). I need it because for my TV otherwise coverart would look blurry and not great at all.

I want to use Last.fm for Track popularity as example to round things ub for the artist page.

It seems sometime it choose the image which i placed into the album but after a while it replaces it with something it found in low quality of course.

Nothing?

Would be nice to have a solution for that! Since years I’m looking for a way to do that! :confused:

Is Local Media Assets at the top position under
Settings - Server - Agents - Albums
?

How are the cover art files named?
Is there a subfolder named ‘Scans’ or ‘Artwork’ present in each album subfolder?
