BUG ? Album Art Search didn't find a picture

Hi @all

I' ripped a audio-cd with fb2k: ALBUM-name is HUMAN. :||: NATURE.
The resulting file ist named: ...HUMAN._-__-_NATURE. ...
The search pattern for my album art is: *_-_$replace(%album%, ,_,?,-,",,/,-,|,_,:,-)_a.*
an existing picture (.jpg)with this pattern is not found (it searches *_-_HUMAN._-__-_NATURE._a.* !!)
I think, the "|"-sign is problematic and the rip-name ist given, but album-art search canceled search before pattern is ran through

Is there always a solution (feature) or is this a bug?

A solution or education would be nice, thx
perhaps @Peter has a solution

Not a bug. The issue is you cannot have '.' in your filenames.

I use:
$replace(%album%,/,-,:,-,.,-,?,-,*,-, AND , & )))

Hi @Defender

why the converter write these "." in filenames if they not allowed ? (Windows does)

I#ve renamed the file to HUMAN__-__-_NATURE_ and patter is now *_-_$replace(%album%,.,_, ,_,?,-,",,/,-,:,-)_a.* but this album art is not shown :-(

Why not cover "front.jpg", "back.jpg": my directory is %album artist%\%date% %album% - since ages ago (~45)  :)

Just throwing a quick comment that of course dots are allowed in the name. And I can confirm that for some reason the pipe characters cause the matching to fail. Peter will fix and/or comment.

@Case thanks for the attention, I've already doubted myself  ;D

My bad.
Dots in the filename (art or other) definitively go wrong from within PSS/ELP $filefind commands. Everything after the first dot is just considered as a wildcard. Apparently true TF handles dots correctly.
