Import M3U 3.8 - Updated 26/10/2013

[trixmoto]

I'll take a look when I get a chance.

I'm running into a little trouble importing some of my playlists. One particular list is a .m3u file with UTF-8 encoding.

Unfortunately VBScript only supports UTF-16, not UTF-8, so I don't think there's much I can do about this, sorry.

New version (3.4) is now available to download from my website. I have added an option to allow a folder of playlists to be imported. It's a bit of a rush job though, you'll need to amend the script file to set the "ImportDir" variable to "True".

I just downloaded the script for the first time (meaning, I have the latest version, and I never used a previous version before), and when I tried it with three different m3u files, there was no result. I got the dialog box, and I selected yes for "Ignore track extension?", "Ignore punctuation", and "Create Logfile", and as for "Create tracks" and "Include created tracks", I tried with them off and on. After I click "Ok", just nothing happens. No error message, no logfile in tmp, and no new playlist created. Am I missing something?

[trixmoto]

That's very odd - can you email me a sample M3U file?

New version (3.5) is now available to download from my website. Neither mode was quite working correctly so I've fixed both. You no longer need to edit the script file; you will first be presented with the option to select a directory of playlists. If you want to select a single playlist rather than a whole directory then simply click "Cancel" and you will then be given the option to select the playlist.

New version (3.6) is now available to download from my website. Changes include...

- Fixed messages appearing when importing a directory
- Fixed last file location not being remembered

Hi,

I found your add-on by searching the forum and downloaded the script and moved it to the "Auto" directory. I also added the following:

Code: Select all

' [ImportM3U]
' FileName=ImportM3U.vbs
' ProcName=ImportM3U
' Order=10
' DisplayName=ImportM3U
' Description=Import M3U playlist
' Language=VBScript
' ScriptType=0 

to scripts.ini (I removed the ' before adding them). However, the script returns error messages when I try to run it. Could you tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Thank you,

Thank you,

It should be in MediaMonkey\Scripts\ not the MediaMonkey\Scripts\Auto\ folder.

I get the error
"C:\...\ImportM3U.vbs cannot be opened. The file is unavailable or you may not have permission to access it."

I've run it in administrator mode and clicked "ignore" and get
"Error #13-Microsoft VBScript runtime error
Type mismatch: 'ImportM3U"
File: C:\..\ImportM3U.vbs" Line 1, Column 0."

Any Ideas?

Did you move it to the correct folder like I said in my previous message?

[endurelement10]

Yes I did.

[nohitter151]

Yes I did.

Then is the file named correctly as ImportM3U.vbs (not ImportM3U.vbs.txt)? Also, why are you installing it manually? There is an installer where you just double-click to install at trixmoto's website.

I double clicked the .mmip file which opens up MM but then I get:

"Product Installation Error"

Look at Trixmoto's signature (very bottom of first post in thread).
