How to have one image automatically assigned as the multi-disc album thumb?

Hi all,

I am having difficulties working out what the best procedure is for having one folder.jpg being picked up as the “master” thumb automatically for multi-discs.

Example – I have a 27 cd Album where each cd covers a particular era. I want to use the cover art from this Album but keep the cd covers too. I want the cover art for the album to display when navigating my music but when I nail down into the album itself… then the corresponding cd covers should show. My structure is as follows:

Artist > Album >
folder.jpg
album.nfo
CD1 (subfolder)
CD2
etc

In each subfolder the structure is:
track 01
track 02
folder.jpg
etc

The problem I am having is Kodi is ignoring the album.nfo file at root of the structure as well as the folder.jpg and just randomly selecting folder.jpg from any one of the 27 folders corresponding the cds. I know I can manually set this up by selecting a folder image but is there a better automatic way? I need to setup my music on several devices and with a large collection it is easy to forget to do this manual process. Also I am currently having to place album.nfo files in every cd folder as the album.nfo and folder.jpg at root are ignored. Any assistance I can get would be HUGELY appreciated. Thanks!!
