I’m sorry but I have no idea what you mean.

The artist’s cover image is displayed in every artist entry on the Artist Page.  
When setting up that cover image, there is an option to “Change Local Thumbnail.”  
I want to apply all of those selections to this page.

I still do not understand. You want to set the same image to all artists ? That’s not possible and probably not really wanted.

The “;” symbol is being changed to a “,”. Because of this, the system recognizes the artists as two separate artists. Could you please fix this so that the “;” symbol remains unchanged?

Also, in the Artists tab, selecting cover art individually for each artist is very time-consuming. Would it be possible to add an option to automatically use the album artwork from the artist’s songs instead of having to manually select the cover art for each artist?

Sorry if my explanation is unclear. I’m not very good at translating this into English, so I’m not sure if my request is being conveyed correctly.

> The “;” symbol is being changed to a “,”. Because of this, the system recognizes the artists as two separate artists.

What Media Provider are you using? If you’re using local files, you can already change this behavior. Go to Settings → Manage media providers → (tap your provider) → **Artist/album artist tag separators**

Remove the semi-colon `;` from this menu and your artists won’t split into two artists.

If you are using other providers, then the app just shows the information that it is given. You’d have to check your server’s setting to stop them from being split.

> Also, in the Artists tab, selecting cover art individually for each artist is very time-consuming. Would it be possible to add an option to automatically use the album artwork from the artist’s songs instead of having to manually select the cover art for each artist?

Again if you are using Local Files then there is already an option in the Media Provider settings. Enable the “ **Generate missing thumbnails from songs** ” toggle and then rescan your library. That should automatically fill in art for any artist that doesn’t already have an image.
