Exactly what i thought

replace

Code: Select all

      If Not TopTracksDict.Exists(TrackTitle)Then
      	count = count+1
      	TopTracksDict.Add count, TrackTitle
      	If count = MaxTracks Then
      		Exit For
      	End if
      End If

with

Code: Select all

      If Not TopTracksDict.Exists(TrackTitle) And InDB(artist,TrackTitle,True)=True Then
      	count = count+1
      	TopTracksDict.Add count, TrackTitle
      	If count = MaxTracks Then
      		Exit For
      	End if
      End If

and add

Code: Select all

'This function checks if a track exists in the db and also checks if is accessible
Function InDB(Artist,SongTitle,CheckAccess)
	InDB = False
	Dim SQL
	If artist <> "" Then
		SQL = "Artists.Artist = '" & artist & "' "
	End If
	If Songtitle = "" Then
		MsgBox "No track title specified!"
		Exit Function
	End If
	
	If SQL <> "" Then
		SQL = SQL & " AND songs.songtitle like '" & songtitle & "'"
	Else
		SQL = "songs.songtitle like '" & songtitle & "'"
	End If
	
	'only do for 1 item!
  Set QueryMatch = SDB.Database.QuerySongs (SQL)  
  if Not QueryMatch.EOF Then
  	If checkaccess = True Then
    	If IsAccessible(QueryMatch.item) Then
      	InDB  = True
      	Exit Function
    	End If
    Else
    	InDB = True
    	Exit Function
    End If
	End If
	InDB = False
End Function

and update in Matchtracks

Code: Select all

  Do While Not QueryMatch.EOF Or i = MaxTracks

to

Code: Select all

  Do While Not QueryMatch.EOF AND i <= MaxTracks

Now while building the toptracks it will automatically check if is in db and accessible this saves the step of matchtracks.

Posted: **Sat Mar 24, 2007 8:53 am**

I must have screwed something up, I'm getting a database error, and QueryMatch is undefined in InDB() function.

Adding Dim QueryMatch to InDB()

There was a problem querying the database
42000 MS OBDC driver: syntax error (missing operator) in query expression ' Songs.IDAlbum=Albums.ID AND Songs.IDArtist AND AlbArt.ID=Albums.IDArtist
Artists.Artist = 'Metallica' AND songs.songtitle like 'Enter Sandman".

Posted: **Sat Mar 24, 2007 9:09 am**

Are you sure you copied the code from above? I don't get any error msg atm when i press the button om MM interface.

Weird. Can't help atm cause i'm off now, g2g learning

If you can't figure it out for yourself i can take a look at the code again in the later tonight.

Happy coding

Posted: **Sat Mar 24, 2007 9:11 am**

Yea still get problems with database error with the above copied.

I'll try to get it figured out, thanks alot for your help!

Wierd. I re copied/pasted, compacted library, restarted and now it seems to be not giving errors..

However it seems like it is still querying all tracks instead of iterating through a single track at a time.

You have to check that there are no invalid Charakters in the Sql Query
I tried your Script and produced an error when there is an inverted comma in the SongName.
Perhaps you can replace all invalid Charakters with a wildcard.

@holterpolter: do you mean inverted comma as a "hoch komma"? ( ' )

@Teknojnky: well actually you could remove the matchtracks part if you add make the toptracsk a playlist since almost everything that needs to be done is done there. It does not enqueue the whole list but only Maxtracks.

Posted: **Sat Mar 24, 2007 4:43 pm**

Here is a working version of the script but it's still ALPHA. Many things are still missing or incomplete and all settings are edited directly in the file

It will enqueue at the end of your current playlist as default.

Just copy into your scripts/Auto folder and restart MM

Hah, nice! Don't forget to credit yourself on there as well!

Posted: **Sun Mar 25, 2007 4:46 am**

Ok, hacked on it some more from RedX's last post.

edit: moved to first post in thread

Posted: **Sun Mar 25, 2007 8:38 pm**

Looks it fails on certain artists, I'm thinking its either the last.fm url or query.

example:

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

edit: looks like the url as the last.fm feed doesnt appear to return anything.
