That means "remove from ...".

The Script was made to remove Songs from a Playlist, if the Song is included in the Playlist. So if you only want to know in which Playlists the Song is, only open the Menu, don't click the Playlist :wink:

[quote="Steegy"]Hello

The above linked script is an Auto-script.

From the faq ( http://faq.mediamonkey.com/index.php?action=artikel&cat=373734&id=8&artlang=en ):
[quote]Auto-scripts that don't have an installer:
Close MediaMonkey
If the script is not available as a file, open Notepad, copy the text of the script, paste it into notepad, and then save the file with the appropriate script name (e.g. "newscript.vbs").
Copy the script file to the following folder:
Program FilesMediaMonkeyscriptsauto
Restart MediaMonkey[/quote]
Own explanation:
- Close MediaMonkey
- Copy the posted code (green text) to a new plain text file (e.g. with notepad) and save this file as "RemoveFromPlayList.vbs" (without quotation marks) to the MediaMonkey Scripts\Auto folder (normally C:\Program Files\MediaMonkey\Scripts\Auto).
- Start MediaMonkey (-> the script will automaticly start and add context menu items).

OK, I have the VBS file in the folder and restarted. Now how do I see the playlists associated with the songs?
I do not see any new "...context menu items..." unless this requires the MonkeyMediaGold version.

Thanks for your time on creating this script. Glad other members are able to use this too.

OOPS - Never mind. I installed the latest version. After it opened it took about 30 minutes for the script to run.
Once the script was complete, Right click on the file and there is an option listed above the Properties option that reads "Entfernen Aus..."
Not sure what that says, and I suspect I can change the script to change the text.

THanks... It works quite well for my 15000 files and over 50 playlists.
I can finally find those "mis labeled" files that I put in the wrong playlist.

wow i actually wanted to ask the same thing today...
cool now i have my answer.

Thanks

Can someone please post instructions or a link to the instructions on how to do this?

Thanks,

Thank you! This works wonderfully. Now I wish I'd asked this long ago -- serves me right.

[quote="onkel_enno"]I made a script which could be used for that. I'll search ...

Where and how do I enter this script? And is there a way to display the playlists that the file is in, in the main window with the other file information?

Thanks,

CEV

For me, I'd be happy with it for normal playlists only. That's the only feature I miss from iTunes, actually. I often have the same song in many playlists, and I can't remember if I've put it there or not.

If it's as easy as you say it is, maybe I need to learn how to script it...

Yes, this would be an awesome feature. I have always wanted this when I was using Win Media Player. One could tell what playlist the song is in so he does not add it again.

CEV

Is this about normal playlists, or also auto-playlists?

For normal playlists, this can probably easily be done using scripting (see PlaylistsSongs table: get SongId for current song, look if it's in the PlaylistSongs table, get resulting PlaylistId's, get playlist names from the Playlists table, using the id).

For auto-playlists, that would be much more difficult, and require lots of cpu-power (performance would go dooooooooown).

Cheers

No, but this has been requested as a feature. Back then the developers responded positively to the idea to add a tab to the song properties window with all the playlists the song belongs to. So far nothing has been implemented yet.

I have about 40 different playlists, I want to find out what playlist each song is listed with.
