I used that script quite a while ago and found it very useful. But since my library was growing I got a question:
Is it possible to convert AbumName (CD1) into AbumName and Disk="CD1" ?
I like to have the CD1 in the Disc# field instead of just the number, what gives a better overviev in gig Track lists with many columns.
Is the script working with MM4?
Thanks

I can't see any reason why this script wouldn't work in MM4, but I haven't explicitly tested it. Please let me know if you have any problems.
You could easily modify the script to add "CD" in front of the disk number if you wanted to.

Ok, it seems to work in MM4.

Well, good to know that it's easily possible, but actually I haven't got a clue of coding and scripting at all. I had a quick look through the code but I wouldn't really know what to change in there
. So if you plan to release another version of the script, maybe you could add that to the whishlist. Would be great to see that implemented. Thanks alot!

Open the script file in a text editor. Replace line 147...
...with...
Then replace line 155...
...with...
Code: Select all
itm.DiscNumberStr = "CD"&Int(Left(s,1))
That should do it.

Hello Trixmoto, hello all,
I've made yet a few more enhancements to the CombineAlbums script in a way that it now supports disc numbers > 9 as well.
As development seems to have slowed down a little I was wondering if it wasn't time to start hosting all the interesting scripts at GitHub. Should anybody be interested- especially Trixmoto- I've started a repository at
https://github.com/andig/mediamonkey and would be happy to contribute.
Kind regards,
Andreas

If you want to send me the modifications you've made, I'll take a look at adding them into the next version.

I've taken a look at this, and can see that you've also taken out the code that attempts to handle discs as letters as well (A,B,C...) - was that deliberate?

No- I probably didn't recognize this.

Ok, I'll see if I can combine the two
Also, you've changed the regular expressions, but these aren't really my strong suit - do you remember what you changed and why?

Honestly they didn't match my local version and I had no clue where those changes came from (looked like artifacts). Feel free to change them back but please check if the matching brackets where moved and different array indexes of the matches are used further on.

New version (3.1) is now available to download from my website. I have fixed disc numbers larger than 9, thanks to andig.

Hi Trixmoto,
unfortunately you're updated 3.1 doesn't seem to contain the necessary changes and gives me errors. Only did a quick check but process1..3 need to look like this:
Code: Select all
' 1. AlbumName (CD 1) -> AlbumName and Track=1##
Sub process1(itm, albumname, disc)
' msgbox("proc1 "&albumname&" "&disc)
disc = CInt(disc) * 100
Do While itm.TrackOrder > 100
itm.TrackOrder = itm.TrackOrder - 100
Loop
itm.AlbumName = albumname
itm.TrackOrder = disc + itm.TrackOrder
End Sub
' 2. AlbumName (CD 1) -> AlbumName and Disc=1
Sub process2(itm, albumname, disc)
' msgbox("proc2 "&albumname&" "&disc)
disc = CInt(Left(disc,Len(disc)-2))
itm.AlbumName = albumname
itm.DiscNumber = disc
End Sub
' 3. Track=1## -> Disc=1 and Track=##
Sub process3(itm,c)
Dim s : s = itm.TrackOrderStr
If Len(s) > 2 Then
c = c + 1
itm.DiscNumber = Int(Left(s,Len(s)-2))
itm.TrackOrder = Int(Mid(s,2))
End If
End Sub
