No Laughing at the examples but for some reason they are the ones that you should be able to replicate.

Both of these examples skip images (unfortunately they are the ones I am after)

Artist Chantoozies
Album Chantoozies
Skips the 4th image

Artist Sandy Marton
Album Exotic & Erotic 12 Inch
Skips the 1st image

When I use Tools/Scripts/BatchArtFinder it works ok. I was having problems with trixmoto's other scripts as well so I will give them a try from the main menu instead of rightclickforscript...

I just checked Trix's mmip - it's still got the Script.ScriptPath in it - so will have a problem running off of my RightClickForScripts. I do want to be clear - this isn't a bug in Trix's script, but rather a limitation either in MM scripting capability or my knowledge

. If a script works correctly from Tools/Scripts but not from the right-click scripts menu, then almost for sure there's still a Script.ScriptPath issue as I described in the RightClickForScripts thread.

Cool, I still use the right click script for everything else, it's a great step saver.

@MoDementia - can you email me some more details about your settings if you want me to investigate this further?

@onenonymous - unfortunately although I am now trying to reduce my use of "Script.ScriptPath" in my scripts, there are some cases where it is necessary.

I'm still looking for a way around my limitation. Which of your scripts require Script.ScriptPath? I'd like to look at them and see if it gives me any ideas. Thx!

No idea, sorry. I don't have time to go through them all and check, that would take hours!

When I try to find album covers for files that already have artwork (I'm trying to find bigger/better artwork), the script does not want to let me. It first prompts me:

There are no albums with missing artwork, do you want to process albums with artwork?

I choose 'Yes', and it just comes back with:

There are no albums with missing artwork

Furthermore, sometimes it does this on tracks that do NOT have artwork. I haven't been able to spot any rhyme or reason to this.

Using version 2.7 of Batch Art Finder, and 3.0.3.1140 of MediaMonkey.

Thanks,

Jamie

Strange. Are these files in albums?

Sent a screen shot of my settings via email, (sorry its a bit big)
Maybe it got rejected?

Sorry, I have it, I'll try to take a look at it properly tomorrow.

Yes. I only have a handful of files with no album defined, and I just tried it on those to see what would happen (none of them had any artwork) and it did the same thing.

Trixmoto:

Would it be difficult or possible to add a back to previous image option??

trixmoto · Post by **trixmoto** » Sat Mar 29, 2008 10:38 am

It would be impossible, unfortunately. This is because the script ignores some of the images so you can't just got back one to get to the previous one that was shown. I guess it might be possible, but it's gonna be very difficult.

Forget I asked, I can just keep doing what I am, skipping it and then restarting for the ones I want to go back to.

I'll take a look at it next time I'm working on the script and see if I can work something out. It's something that's been requested before so you're not the only one after it!
