Auto Album DJ 3.8 - Updated 08/08/2010

Okay, thank you. Don't spend too much time on it if no-one else has any issues, it's not that important! Found the hotkey command, I just didn't scroll down enough, my apologies.

I love this script and I use it all the time! However, it would be nifty if I could skip albums in advance. In other words skip albums that it adds to the now playing list. Could it be done?

It would also be great if it could add the album as a whole, not just 10 songs of it. If it isn't possible, can you increase the number of songs (10+)?

[trixmoto]

Yes, I agree that skipping the selected album would be useful, I've added this to my list.

The way these script works is that it just returns a track to the native Auto DJ functionality whenever it asks for one. This script does not add tracks to the Now Playing list directly, nor should it, as an Auto DJ script. You can change the number 10 in the Auto DJ settings if you want to make it larger.

I have just read through this thread, and it doesn't seem as though there is a way to ask the AutoAlbum DJ to stay within a genre when selecting albums. I know I can set up my included genres in the options panel, but I can't, say, enable the DJ, play a Classical album, and have all subsequent selections stay within Classical (unless I change the options each time I change genres)? Is this correct?

Either way, it is another awesome Trixmoto script.

Thanks, this is correct. Maybe the StayInSameStyleDJ script is more what you're after?

Thanks, Trixmoto. I'll keep your script running at home and StayInSamestyleDJ at work - see which works best for me. I see you had input on that script as well, so it may do the job.

I still get an error message running this script.

Error -2147 in AutoAlbumDJ3.vbs, line 612, column 8. The line in question seems to be

Dim list : Set list = SDB.Objects("AADJSongList")

Any ideas where I'm going wrong? MM3.1, Win 7...

[trixmoto]

Well by my calculation line 612 is...

Code: Select all

Call list.Add(iter.Item)

My guess would be that "iter.Item" is blank and that's causing the problem. Try replacing that single line of code with these three lines...

Code: Select all

If Not (iter.EOF) Then
  Call list.Add(iter.Item)
End If

...and see if that works?

Cheers for the reply. No, I now get error

Error 424 VBRuntime Error

I think you need to open "MediaMonkey.ini" in a text editor, find the [AutoAlbumDJ] section and delete the "SongList" key and value. You have IDs in this list which do not appear in your database and this is causing the problem. I'll try to make the next version of the script handle this properly.

Tried that but got the exact same error (Generate new track, line 632, col 6).

No problem, I'll wait for the new super-duper one!

I have a minor issue. I have say, jazz, selected as my genre in options. I select the first jazz album to play. The next album (the first album that Auto Album DJ selects after my selection) is classical. From then on, it selects only jazz. Just me?

[trixmoto]

I've never experienced this - are you using a genre or library filter?

A genre from the list in options.

A genre from the list in options.

I'm sorry, what does this mean?
