I would just like to say a thank you trixmoto, for this addon!
This is one of the reason why I use MediaMonkey!
It is really helpful and I do use it

Keep up the good work & Happy coding!

Sorry, looks like you'll have to use the menu bar then.

It shows the wrong information on the confirmation screen. After testing I've found that it actually happens on all tracks but only when used through the rightclick for scripts menu. If used through Tools > Scripts it works fine.

Does the confirmation screen show you what you want, but this isn't actually happening to the tags, or is the confirmation screen getting it wrong as well?

Hi Trixmoto, your script has been very useful but I've run into a bit of a problem. If the album which I want to fix the 'The' of the artist is self titled, eg The Coral by The Coral, your script will make the 'The' in the album trail, matching the artist and album artist, and will not return the 'The' of the artist to the front even if I run it multiple times.

MM3 installation package now available from my website!

Updating the Album Artist works great now. Thanks for updating the script!

I'm glad you found it useful!

I have tested the script on my whole database and it worked like a charm ... I have really nothing more to report than that it's perfect as it is and thumbs up!

ok, cool ... hadn't actually taken a look in the script ... but this I will do now, thanks!

Open "FixTrailingThe.vbs" in a text editor and find the "The" list at the top of the file...

Code: Select all

Dim theList(3)		'this number must match the largest item number
theList(0) = "The"	'add more lines like this one for more words
theList(1) = "Der"	'the fewer words you have the faster it will process
theList(2) = "Die"
theList(3) = "Das"

Then amend the list, so your "A" list should be something like...

Code: Select all

Dim theList(2)		'this number must match the largest item number
theList(0) = "A"	'add more lines like this one for more words
theList(1) = "en"	'the fewer words you have the faster it will process
theList(2) = "An"

Hi Trixmoto,

so far I have had no issues concerning the word "the", but I have also trailing a's ... as in for example an album with name: "A Nordic Poem" is now called "Nordic Poem, A".

Is it possible that you can change your script to also in include the two words: A en An

It's very cool by the way that you made that script so you can check what is will change! Thumbs up for that!

I haven't had much time the last couple of weeks, but I will test this version (3.4) this week and I will let you know if it solved all my problems

(I can't do anything else then that, since I have been nagging all the time when you had time to fix this for me

)

Yeah, I've not seen this before. It could be a vista issue, looks like there's something wrong with your scripting host.

OK, I am trying this script. I suspect it is user error. I have not modified it at all.

Errors are

(first error dialog)

Error#13 - Microsoft VBScript runtime error
Type mismatch: 'MainExec'
File: "M:\MediaMonkey\Scripts\FixTrailingThe.vbs", Line:1, Column:0

(Click OK, then second error dialog)

Error happend during script execution:
Type mismatch: 'MainExec'

FYI - My system is Vista. So I am guessing that is the problem.

-thanks
