Album art indexing priority

The reason is that when using the Windows Media Player with default settings, it downloads album art from the internet and stores it as 'Folder.jpg' in the album directory. These 'Folder.jpg' files are saved as hidden system files and are of quite low resolution, typically in the scale of a few kB. If one now manually stores high resolution album art as 'cover.jpg', MinimServer will unexpectedly provide the low resolution album art from the WMP. Not a big thing, but it took me some time to figure this out and since the WMP seems to be widely used, it is likely that some other user may experience this as well.

The reason why folder.* has the highest priority is that many other music servers use Folder.jpg for cover art and many users have created their libraries with their preferred cover art files named as Folder.jpg.

Is it possible to prevent WMP from doing this by adjusting its settings? If so, this seems like the best solution.
