@dlt - you can use the "AvgPlays" variable to define the maximum average playcount per album. At the moment the "MaxDays" is based on the added date, not the last played date, so this option is not available yet.

@Guest - this script is next on my list!

Oops, so you can... oh well, it was still worth a post if it helped push the script to the front of your mind and to-do list! Thanks, it really is a great script.

so glad I'm not the only one ...

I have completed the upgrade of this script to the new "AutoDJ" script type in MM3. However, due to a bug in MM it doesn't actually work. I'll release this script once I've tested the next release of MM in which I've been told this should be fixed.

What bug is this? Maybe my script isn't working because of this?

Lets test one thing:
Test AutoDJ with 1 track (keep all played) and write results and after that do with multiple (2+) tracks (keep all played) and make results.

We are interested in findings.

The trouble is that when "GenerateNewTrack" is called, that track is not always added to the Now Playing list. This is not a problem if you are returning random tracks based on a criteria, but when returning all the tracks in an album in the correct order, it means that you don't get the full album in the Now Playing list.

You lost me there
I'm not getting what you want to archive (5 tracks from Same Album in correct order)?

"Archive"?

MM calls "GenerateNewTrack" in my script to grab a track for the AutoDJ, however it doesn't always add them to the Now Playing window, which it should. It does always add the number that you want, but it calls "GenerateTrack" more often than it should. Jiri has confirmed this is a bug. It stops my script from working because my script needs every track selected to be added to the Now Playing list.

I see your point now. you are right.

New version (3.0) is now available to download from my website. Changes include...

- Fixed the random number falling outside of range (thanks to Randy)
- Moved logfile to windows temporary directory (%temp%)
- Made into new AutoDJ script for MM3

For this script to work properly in MM3 you will need at least version 3.0.2.1133 (which is currently the latest beta version).

Thanks Trix, I'm using it now and it works great! I love the new AutoDJ script type as well (keeps the options panel nice and short!)

yeesss!! works perfectly! thanks again trixmoto!

I don't know what I'm doing wrong, but I have "Auto Album DJ" chosen in the "Add tracks from" pull-down, but Auto-DJ is still pulling random tracks out of my library...is there something else I need to do?

@fizzjob

are you using latest beta release?
