Index Artwork

[simoncn]

Subfolders are not scanned. This is partly to keep things simple and partly because each index entry has only one image irrespective of the context in which the index entry appears. For example, Paul McCartney could appear under Artist or Composer. MinimServer is searching only by index name, so the same Paul McCartney.jpg file would be used in both cases. In classical music, this overlap is probably more common, with the same person taking roles of artist, performer, soloist, conductor, composer, etc. on different recordings.

If subfolders were scanned, the first matching image (based only on filename) would be used in all contexts. If there are multiple images with the same filename in different subfolders, this might not be what the user expects. For example, anything in a subfolder would be used in preference to anything in the higher-level folder.
