Something that I've always wanted in Media Monkey was a way to organize collections of albums.
I used to do this using Playlists, but they always got messy.
So I spent a few weekends and I wrote this script, Album Collections.
With it, you can create an "Album Collection" and populate it by dragging songs to it.
An entry is created in the Album Collection for each album in the set of songs dropped.
Album Collections can be organized into folders.
Folder Path Examples
- [Empty]
- Folder
- Folder/Sub Folder
But you can right click a folder to add an Album Collection underneath.
Each Album Collection has separate display, sorting, and grouping options.
There is also the concept of Placeholders.
You can manually add a Placeholder, either above or below an album.
Most importantly if an album in your library is deleted, it will be replaced with a Placeholder in your collection.
You can drag a single album to a Placeholder to replace it with that album.
Let me know if you have any suggestions, or find any bugs.
