Hi Steegy,
Have you done anything to confirm this script working in MM3? I've been working on upgrading to MM3 and trying my favorite scripts from MM2.

You mentioned in this thread that you thought maybe MM3 would support this function natively. I looked but couldn't find anything.

I gave this one a try in MM3 without any modifications and it appears to have worked. I am opening a location node using UNC (a network path, not a drive letter).

It looks good, but I'm not sure that I'm qualified to declare this as being compatible with MM3.

i set a playlist as the Startup node, and i get the following error everytime i start MediaMonkey 3.0.1.1127 (even though it actually opens to the node as i wanted):
StartupNode:

An error occurred while auto-opening the specified node. Possibly, the node specification was incorrect. The node has been opened as far as possible.
in case it matters, i also have Tweak Monkey 1.0 running (1.02 gives me various errors on close) and i have Playlists set from the dropdown menu "to be opened at startup", and i have Playlists checked as Visible and Expanded.

I too tried using it in MM3 and get the same error as above. Any plans to update this?

Try this one: http://home.scarlet.be/ruben.castelein/ ... ode1.2.exe

Please let me know if it works fine (it should on both MM3 and MM2).

Cheers

Are there any options for me to use rather than this one that doesn't work for me?

Start up node works fine for me.
You could try TweakMonkey.
I have not used it since running MM2. However, I do believe it provides a start up node option.

Edit:
Just a thought, when you installed this script, were you running the Monkey as admin (if you are using Vista)? Not logged in as admin, but running MM as admin.

Yes. I always run as Admin.

I just installed it again, and still get the same error.

I tried TweakMonkey, but there were some irrelevant options, and it didn't give me the ability to start up at:
