When A Cover.jpg file is inside a folder in a zip file ubook doesn't select it as a cover instead selects the first jpg file in the folder

Can the ablity to parse info from filenames be implented into Ubook for its library something like the Cover image parser

I have my ebooks named
Author - [Series 00] - Book Name (Format).zip

but when I manually fill in the info fields in Ubook once I move a file I have to enter the all the data again and with a few hundred book its a bit troublesome

This info beside/under the cover in the library should be good and then we can hide the filename

Author
Series #
Book Name

Is the cover is inside the zip file or not? I keep the cover at the same folder level (inside the zip file) as the main text, and I get the proper cover 99% of the time. Also the information is store in uBook.ubi (which keeps all info for a folder). That file would need to be moved as well as the book file to keep the information... But it might be tricky if the destination folder already has a uBook.ubi

the cover is inside the zip file

Book.zip\book\book.html
book.zip\book\cover.jpg
book.zip\book\01.jpg
book.zip\book\02.jpg

or

Book.zip\book\book.html
book.zip\book\image\cover.jpg
book.zip\book\image\01.jpg
book.zip\book\image\02.jpg

with both these structures the cover chosen is 01.jpg instead of cover.jpg

About the book info the way when you press prepare to get covers for books
I was wondering if something similar could be done with book info so by pressing a button ubook gets the book info data from the filenames for a particular folder.
