Below is a partial changelog I started keeping awhile back - I stopped adding to it at some point because I'm lazy:
I'm a little bit confused. Do YOU maintain this script now? Where can I download your modified script to test it?

As soon as I can test YOUR version, I can tell you the most important (missing) features.

I don't "maintain" anything. I modify things to suit my needs. Like you I wanted NGS and Acoustid capabilities (and others) so I added them.

You can't download my version anywhere at the moment. This is for a variety of reasons not least of which is that it is more inefficient than it needs to be with the AcoustID database because we can't write tags to files. The upshot of that is that every time you use the script a large request (~7K * number of tracks) containing multiple fingerprints is POSTed to the AcoustID server. While Lansky's server is very fast and the request/lookup takes well under a second were the script to be public it could hammer the hell out of his server.

Supposedly Jiri is looking into fixing some of this bad behavior but we will see. On the slim chance that he does I am setting it up for a wider release. I'm curious what features you think were lacking in the original that you don't see in my "changelog."

My version does many other things like grab metadata from AMG, artwork from AAE, and merge it with the MB data - but all that will have to be stripped out before you can use it.

It's not that easy for me to understand from your changelog, what exactly the script will do.

With the web scripts from mp3tag I can get all the needed MB-Tags like
MUSICBRAINZ ALBUM ID
MUSICBRAINZ ALBUM TYPE
MUSICBRAINZ ARTIST ID
MUSICBRAINZ DATE
MUSICBRAINZ_TRACKID

and choose always the album fitting most by
- Search for an Album
- Search for an Album + Artist
- Search for an Album + Tracks
- Search for an Artist

Additionally I get the cover (with the naming syntax I want) - and everything with one single script.

It would be great, if the owner of this MB-Tagger-Script could update it or at least tell us not to do that :wink:

No version of this script will be able to write those tags for you. The information is all there in my version but there's no place to *put* it. You cannot save to these tags with MediaMonkey - the application itself does not provide a way to write those tags. No script can remedy that. Jaikoz, Picard, beets, mp3Tagger, quod libbet, etc all allow for this but MM does not. As I said, supposedly that is being worked on - we will see (I'm not holding out hope).

Yes, but the current version of the script does that for you. My version adds an AcoustID check before it falls back to those methods. I was asking if there was some added functionality related to NGS that you wanted to see? But you don't seem to be asking for anything that the original doesn't do.
MMuser2011 wrote:Additionally I get the cover (with the naming syntax I want)
Again, the original gets the cover art for you as well. What do you mean about the naming syntax? You can choose to save the cover as any name you want with the current version?

Everything you want (with the exception of the MBID tags) seems to exist. Please clarify if there's something else you want.

I am having this same problem. I have searched for an answer and didn't see one. Did I miss the resolution some where? If I did, please xcuse me. I'd appreciate some direction.

I get this same error for Yahoo tagger. Although I don't use very often nor do I like this tagger, I just mention it because it has the same problem. Discogs is working fine.

I uninstalled MM & reinstalled. I tried restoring from a backup using backup v5.8 and all 3 scripts worked fine. Because I have never restored before MM displayed all of my files like 4-5 times so I again uninstalled & reinstalled MM and installed all 3 scripts first. I again am getting the same error. I copied the Musicbrainz folder from the backup to the Musicbrainz working folder and now the script does the search okay but the above error screen still appears. The progress bar also looks corrupt.

Thank you.....Steve

The problem is this script was created for MM3, was never updated for MM4.

You can make it work in MM4 but it requires to be installed a special way. First, you must run MediaMonkey 4 as the administrator (right click MM icon > Run as administrator). Then install the script, but uncheck the option to "Install for the current user only".

After that restart MM as you normally would, should work at that point.

Are you sure, that you don't want to use the new version of the MusicBrainz Tagger?
You should give it a try: There are a lot of very useful improvements: http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=64124

I wasn't aware of the new version. I will use and track this script ongoing. Thanks for the heads up.

Please update plugin to use "musicip.gif" instead of "loading.gif", well done though, very useful plugin.
If you could also make it support installing locally [non-admin] on windows as currently it fails to load fully although still partially working.

I used Musicbrainz Tagger for several years, however, new and old versions of Musicbrainz Tagger do not work for me with the latest version of MediaMonkey. Too bad as it was very useful.

It doesn't display the find information in result window, just showing "This program cannot display the webpage" message however it is suggesting changes in track list window. I am using mediamonkey v4.0.6.1501. Since it doesn't showing search result, I am not able to select which info to be updated.
