Hi Trixmoto - Not sure if your still doing any development on this but a couple of features i would like is to be able to select more than one library (or Collection as they're now called) and to have some % parameter between the libraries so trhat i could select say 70% from my Jazz Collection & 30% from my Classical Chamber Music Collection.
Regards

These are the settings i'm using:

The script will always throw in a random track is it can't select an album. When the message says it can't find any tracks above the minimum rating, if you've got it set to "unknown" then it will be including unknown tracks, which effectively means you don't have a rating criteria, I just didn't bother to put in loads of different messages depending on the different settings. You probably need to check your filter and genre settings as well.

Okay, so I figured out what causes the random tracks to appear. The logfile says "[number] has 0 tracks above minimum rating (too few)" for most of the albums and when it encounters 100 of those it plays a random track.

I don't want rating to be a criteria and I haven't set it either. I've tried min rating = unknown and min rating = 0, but both cause this problem. Please advice what to do.

Hmz, after testing this some more it seems the script is actually throwing in random songs from time to time.

I'm having a little issue with this script concerning albums from various artists.

I have the current setup: the script chooses albums from a collection. The collection contains 1 criteria: "playlist is x" where X is a number of static playlists that all contain one album. Aside from that I have no other parameters set except that the LastPlayed(days) = 366.

The script works fine for normal albums. However there are also a number of albums from Various Artists in the collection. From time to time the script picks out 1 song from such an album and after it is played it proceeds to another album. I would expect that the script plays the entire album of Various Artists. Is that behavior intended or not?

My Various Artists albums are tagged like this: the artist tag contains the correct artists (which all differ from each other) and the albumartist tag contains "Various Artists" for all the songs on the album.

I noticed that the script played a split album correctly. The split had "Artist 1; Artist 2" in the albumartist tag and the script correctly played the split album fully, first the songs from artist 1 and then the songs from artist 2.

Am I doing something wrong?

I don't have my music rated but I have Min. Rating set as 'Unknown'

Memory still shows 0 albums and the Genre filter still has 'List' ghosted out

I also get this error:
Error happened during srcipt execution:
Access violation at address 00050B17F in module 'MediaMonkey (non-skinned).exe'. Read of address 00000000

It seems to me that none of your tracks are rated. Is there a checkbox on the "More" popup to include tracks that are unrated?

Thanks for the help. I can't believe I missed the option for the Log file it was right in front of my face! Here's a sample from the log file:

[GenerateNewTrack]
MinTracks = 5
AvgRating = 3 (56)
MinRating = -1 (-1)
Capacity = 5
Attempts = 200
TheGenre =
Mode3f1 = True
ModeNum = 3
MaxTracks = 999
Unplayed = False
Earliest =
MaxDays = 9999
AvgPlays = 999
IgnoreNon = False
MinDays = 0
ApplyFilter = False
min(id) = 201
max(id) = 3077
tot(id) = 1324
1445 has 0 tracks above minimum rating (too few)
2507 has 0 tracks above minimum rating (too few)
2873 has 0 tracks above minimum rating (too few)
1007 has average rating of -1
No album has been selected
Random track: Shut the Door (5595)

The actual log file is much bigger and there are lots and lots of lines that end with "(too few)". What settings should I try changing to get this to work? Thanks!

Thanks for the reply, trixmoto! Unfortunately, I wasn't able to figure out where this option is. I searched on the forums and even tried downloading the debug version of MM as well as the Microsoft DebugView program. I can't figure out how to create a debug logfile. Any ideas?

I forgot to mention before, the Genre List button is ghosted out. Not sure if that means anything to you either. Thanks for the help!

In the options sheet you can tick to create a debug logfile - I'd recommend doing that and seeing if the logfile explains what's happening.

First off, I love this script! However, I'm having problems with the script on my home computer (works fine on my work computer). It doesn't appear that the Memory and Genre Filter are working properly. The Memory always shows 0 albums and Genre Filter just isn't working. If I type in "Rock" it doesn't just add Rock genre songs. I can't seem to figure out why this isn't working. Any ideas? Thanks!

I've restarted several times and I'm using MM Version 4.0.6

It works absolutely fine for me. Have you tried enabling the debug mode to see if that helps determine the problem?

I can't seem to get this to work in MM4?

Is it compatible? I've set everything as normal but it just doesn't want to add tracks to the playlist...
