Trix, would it be possible to work in a "Max Tracks" parameter, similar to the existing "Min. Tracks"? Once in a while, the script will grab a boxed set, which I would like to avoid having in the rotation.

Sounds sensible, I've added this to my to do list.

I just hit enter and the error box goes away. I then activate and deactive autoalbumdj until it adds in some new albums.

Is there any way to disable this error, and set autoalbumdj to automatically retry adding an album?

I installed the script last night and was getting this error, along with what seemed like way too many of the "[album] has 0 tracks above minimum rating" messages in the log file.

I found what appears to be a bug on the following line (line 170 in version 2.7):
This is causing the generated randomly-selected album index range to be too large; the randomly-selected value should be between "min" and "max" but is actually ending up between "min" and "max+min". Thus, a fair amount of the time the script was looking at albums that didn't actually exist in the database, causing the spurious error messages.

The fix, I believe, is to change that line to:
This causes the randomly-selected index to vary between "min" and "max" as intended.

Hope this helps,
Randy

Thanks for letting me know. I'll get this fixed in the next version.

You're quite welcome. This is a great script...I was searching for something in MediaMonkey that would give me the "album shuffle" behavior that I've grown to love on my new iPod nano, and this script fits the bill perfectly. Thanks for creating it.

Sorry for asking. But anyways, is this plugin already compatible with MM3 latest beta version?

I believe it is compatible, but I've not tested it yet. I plan to re-write it for MM3 to use the new Auto-DJ script type. Watch this space!

I was looking for something just like this script. It took me a while to get it going, though, because like a couple other people here I don't have tracks rated. It was not obvious that I needed to set minimum rating to "unknown"--in part because it was unseen at the bottom of the list, while the tempting "logical" selection of zero was right at the top.

It might be helpful to have it set to "unknown" as the default. Presumably people who do use ratings as a filter will be the ones who actually want to change the setting, whereas people who don't use ratings wouldn't touch that setting, so the default should be geared to them.

cant wait for updated version ...
come on trixmoto!!

Ok, I'll look at this for the next version, which I will get round to I promise!

This script has been really helpful in going through all the albums I haven't listened to since adding them to my library.

Right now I'm using the "Only select albums that have not been played before" option, but I'm realizing something: once I've been through everything once, I'm still going to want to be able to look for things with low playcounts or that I haven't listened to in a long time. Ideally, instead of "never been played before," I'd like to be able to say something like "with average playcount < X." This would cover both unplayed albums and underplayed albums.

Alternatively/additionally, it would be nice to be able to specify things that haven't been played since a certain date--or better yet for more than X days.

This script and the kernel streaming plugin are the only reasons I have MM2 running most of the time instead of MM3. I hope you find some time to update the script, untill that time I think I'll stick with MM2..oldschool..ah .
