Preset: Remove diacritical marks from <Into Field> (aeioucdghjklnrstywz)...

Find what: ([\u00E7\u0107-\u010D])|([\u00F0\u010F])|(\u0111)|([\u011D-\u0123])|([\u0125\u0127])|(\u0135)|([\u0137\u0138])|([\u013A-\u0142])|([\u00F1\u0144-\u014B])|([\u0155-\u0159])|([\u015B-\u0161])|([\u0163-\u0167])|([\u00FD\u00FF\u0177])|(\u0175)|([\u017A-\u017E])|([\u00E0-\u00E5\u0101-\u0105\u01CE\u01FB])|([\u00E8-\u00EB\u0113-\u011B])|([\u00EC-\u00EF\u0129-\u012F\u0131\u01D0])|([\u00F2-\u00F6\u00F8\u014D-\u0151\u01A1\u01D2\u01FF])|([\u00F9-\u00FC\u0169-\u0173\u01B0\u01D4-\u01DC])|([\u00E6\u01FD])|(\u0153)

Regular expression 1: checked

Replace with: MapArray(Array("$1", "c", "$2", "d", "$3", "dj", "$4","g", "$5", "h", "$6", "j", "$7", "k", "$8", "l", "$9", "n", "$10","r", "$11", "s", "$12", "t", "$13", "y", "$14", "w", "$15", "z", "$16", "a", "$17", "e", "$18", "i", "$19", "o", "$20", "u", "$21", "ae", "$22", "oe"))

VBScript expression: checked

Thanks, that regexp find/replace preset seems to do the job perfectly. But shouldn't there be a single preset that takes care of all the diacritics, rather than having to run once on vowels and then a second time on consonants?

The RegExp Find and Replace add-on has predefined presets for removing accents for all Latin-1 and Latin-2 character-sets: "Remove diacritical marks from <Into Field> (aeiou)..." and "Remove diacritical marks from <Into Field> (cdghjklnrstywz)...". If you choose Path as destination field, all accents would be removed in the paths, e.g. č will be replaced with c, and so on.

I'm trying to get this to work with other extended characters -- e.g. the czech character č. But when I paste that character into the Const AccentString string in RemoveAccents it doesn't work. There is some sort of unicode problem. I've tried editing the script with gvim for Windows and also with notepad. Any ideas how to extend the script to include these sorts of extended characters, which I believe are not in ASCII at all?

Humm...

With the method by changing the FilenameMappings part of the mediamonkey.ini, somebody if there is a way to replace "..." and ".." in the filename of the song ?

by **nynaevelan** » Sat Nov 14, 2009 10:37 pm

The only the other thing I can think of is reboot and then edit the mediamonkey.ini before opening MM.

by **beans** » Sat Nov 14, 2009 10:36 pm

Tried this as well to no avail.

by **nynaevelan** » Sat Nov 14, 2009 10:14 pm

Double check in the task manager there are no lingering mediamonkey.exe files running.

by **beans** » Sat Nov 14, 2009 9:57 pm

Hey, thanks but I am doing it after MM is closed. It's still getting rewritten every time i reopen MM.

by **trixmoto** » Fri Nov 13, 2009 4:40 am

You need to make sure that you edit this file with MM closed, as it gets rewritten on exit.

Hi, I've tried this and edited the MediaMonkey.ini file in the C:\Documents and Settings\USER\Local Settings\Application Data\MediaMonkey folder. And after reopening MediaMonkey nothing happens. When I check the .ini file again, it has reverted back to the way it was originally--deleting everything I've added. Any help would be appreciated.

very old thread ... I just thought I post my [FilenameMappings] here. That way I keep all tags as they are, but the file names themselves are clean 7 bit ascii, I think.
Cheers, Kai.

Code: Select all

Sub NormalizeFilename
  Dim list, itm, i, tmp, res, qty, message 

  Set list = SDB.CurrentSongList 

  res = SDB.MessageBox( "About to (possibly) modify " + CStr(list.count) + " files. Continue?", mtConfirmation, Array(mbOk, mbCancel)) 

  if res = mrOK then 
    For i=0 To list.count-1 
      Set itm = list.Item(i) 
      tmp = itm.Path

      tmp = Replace(tmp, " ", "_") 
      tmp = Replace(tmp, "´", "'") 
      tmp = Replace(tmp, "`", "'") 

      tmp = Replace(tmp, " ", "_") 
      tmp = Replace(tmp, " - ", "-") 

      tmp = RemoveAccents(tmp)

      itm.Path = tmp 
      itm.UpdateDB 
    Next 
  End If 
End Sub 


Function RemoveAccents(InputString) 
    Const AccentString = "ÀÁÂÃÄÅÇÈÉÊËÌÍÎÏÏÑÒÓÔÕÖÙÚÛÜÝàáâãäåçèéêëìíîïðñòóóôõöùúûüýÿ" 
    Const NonAccentStr = "AAAAAACEEEEIIIIINOOOOOUUUUYaaaaaaceeeeIIIIonoooooouuuuyy" 

    RemoveAccents = InputString 

    Dim i 
    For i = 1 To Len(AccentString) 
        RemoveAccents = Replace(RemoveAccents, Mid(AccentString, i, 1), Mid(NonAccentStr, i, 1)) 
    Next 
End Function

Just a quick mod of the script that Bex linked. I emphasize "quick" because I don't have much time and didn't test it.

Cheers
Steegy

Yes, do what Steegy says!

If not, I actually found a script which adds underscore to the path:

Perhaps you can alter it so it fit your needs...
