Edit the Hollywood config. I will try.
If this means the "Default directory" setting in RNOTunes' settings, it will only affect when adding new tunes into the tune list, but it doesn't help with the cover art file requester.

RNOTunes will remember paths for adding tunes and adding playlists, because they're using the normal file requester which can have the default dir/file set. But the cover art selection in the properties editing isn't using a standard file requester, it's using the MUI Popfile class, which creates both the string gadget and the popup requester gadget as a single object, and with that object the default path is set only according to the contents of the string gadget. So, if I'd pre-fill the string gadget with something then it would use that as the default path for the popup file requester, but pre-filling isn't an option in this particular case, because the cover art string should only show what's already been set... it has to be empty for a new tune that doesn't have anything set for it.

MPlayer on AROS remember last directory.
I guess you mean the regular file requester for adding files? I don't remember MPlayer would have "Popfile" requesters... or maybe in the settings, but they're having some content on them already...

What if there was a menu entry "add cover art" First open picture, then select all the files you want to add it?

I don't want to restrict it to the cover art only, user must be able to copy any properties :)

But I improved the situation now and made these changes:
1) I removed the Popfile gadget and replaced it by separate string and popup button gadgets. Now the popup requester will use standard file requester and it remembers the previous path and file.
2) I also added new buttons after each property line. These buttons will fill properties from the previously selected tune... so if you open properties for "tune 1", add a cover image for it, select "tune 2", and then click the left arrow at the end of the line, it puts the cover from "tune 1" for the "tune 2" too. So just click these arrow buttons to pick any properties from the previously selected tune.

It's still not "batch adding", but should make it more comfortable to add same info for several files.

Here's a new beta to download.

I also added AMIGASYSTEM's graphics on the archive.

jPV sorry, in the previous archive there were some imperfections and a duplicate skins, I attach corrected archive link.

Regarding RNOTunes preferences, I noticed that when you do the skin change (GFX), in some cases, in the GFX path the old setting is not deleted completely.

Hmm.. what do you mean exactly? Is the old dir left as a sub dir in the string or something more messed? Immediately when you select a new skin or after restart or the program?

In a few days I should deploy my new version of AROS One, can i include the latest beta of RNOTunes or should I wait for the official Stable version? thanks

Ah, I have a popfile requester there, and if you have a path that doesn't end to the "/" character, it thinks it's a file and not directory and that causes confusion. I'll change it to a popdrawer requester, which should fix the issue, and also put the trailing / on the default config just in case :)

I think the next software is a GUI for SOX quite unique and intuitive, missing a similar tool for AROS, will add to what we have now to work with audio, meanwhile thank you Serk for porting SOX

Stay Tuned!

Aros is Best

I got the final bits I needed now, I'll just have to make finishing touches and test the last things, but shouldn't take many days anymore. A week at max, maybe sooner. If you want to wait that :)
