Add the cover art as “cover.jpg” to the album’s folder, then in the configuration > library > library display options > cover search priority choose “cover image file”. That way moode will use the file if it exists, if not it uses any embedded art.
I don’t know of a great library management tool to automate generating the cover images and it usually requires eyeballing the different choices from an image search to see which one looks best. Keep in mind that while 600x600 will look acceptable on a 1:1 pixel ratio device many modern devices have > 72dpi displays and need higher resolution art in order for it to appear sufficiently sharp, I usually look for 1000x1000 as a minimum while also trying to keep the image size < 300k so it loads quickly.
Thanks for the response and clarification. With 1000x1000 my SONOS system has trouble to display them. There I think teh max is around 500x500 or the mentioned 600x600
I think long term I will go away from iTunes as it is no longer a strong music library supporter - more a "we sell nearly al - some essential might be missedl" shop. Until now it was good enough for ripping and automatic organization of the library. Anyhow, I now know how to add the missing art work
