Thanks man...

I'm trying to put together a list of bugs/features that I should work on next time I attack this thing...
Let me know if there is anything I should add...

I realize the things I don't use so often are a bit buggy.

BUGS--
Move Up/Down with Grouping Enabled throws error
Deleting an album from a collection when album is selected (of course it has to be) throws error
Move Up/Down is a bit buggy and should probably understand gaps
Move album into position shouldn't be smart
Send To Album Collection can only handle one album
Placeholder add to bottom is broken

ENHANCEMENTS--
Reload Album Collection display after using Send To

I just want to thank you for this update. I love that it saves previous Send To locations.
Now it's so easier to use.
Cheers!

Since MediaMonkey 4 finally fixed iPod support. I've found a new love for using it again.
I'm glad to hear that at least one person uses this, I still do, and a "Send To" menu was something I needed as well.

**Feature**
Send To Menu w/ History

**Improvements & Bugfixes**
Uses database album order instead of counter (this allows you to better spot/fix gaps & overlaps)
Selects first matching AlbumID when using "Find More from same Album Collection"
Better updating of Tree Node Context Menus
Rename AlbumCollection bug

Hey man,

Sorry I've been MIA. Glad to hear at least someone still enjoys it.
I've been rather busy programming for my working life...

I have a few changes that are unreleased as of now, I'll take a look into your requests over the next week and see what I can do.

Hi AngrySpade,

I'm still very enjoying this (very well done) script, and would like to thank you for this.

Two questions:

1) Do you think it's possible to have the collection folder name(s) written into a custom field? It would be easier to know if any track is part of a collection or not. Often I forget to drag it to the Album Collection node, afterwards the fastest way I found is to check with [Find More From Same -> Album Collection] if it's already included or not in a collection. Tedious task with many involved tracks.

2) Related to first question, would it be difficult to program the ability to [Send To -> Collection folder name] tracks, similarly to [Send To -> Playlist name]? It would be incredibly easier to manage the collections this way.

Thank you!

Eyal :~)

It's excellent!

I found a bug with the function that specifies a position by number.
I fixed the bug, but I'm writing some code to isolate gaps & overlaps and help to resolve them. I figure it is something that will come in handy anyway.

Hey Eyal,

I had noticed some issues with when a collection is refreshed, I think I've taken care of that.
I also made it so it doesn't change the focus of your current node when you add something to a collection, (that started to bother me really quickly)

As far as displaying the number of items in a collection, i dont know why I didn't think of that sooner.

Thanks

Hi AngrySpade, sorry about not replying sooner.

So far so good. I'm currently building a Collection, slowly but surely, because I do not have much time.

- What I noticed is that it does not allways refresh automatically when you drag tracks to the node (from some locations). So there's no feedback on whether the tracks have been added or not. To see the changes, I must select another node and then return to the current node.

- I'll be glad to activate an option for a popup that would tell me how many tracks / albums have been added to the collection node. It would avoid making the necessary checks.

Nevertheless, I like the script very much, you did a great job.

Thanx!

Eyal :~)

You can't rename placeholders just yet, I wasn't sure if i should add such functionality.
I wasn't quite sure what I was looking for when I thought I needed them.

Let me see what I can come up with.

Any other ideas?

Congratulations for the new release. It's really taking shape. :)

Maybe i misunderstood the use of Placeholders. I can't give them a name right now (or i missed the function). It might be interesting to rename them and sort them like real albums to keep track of albums that are not yet ripped.
