Magic Nodes 4.2 w/ 380 masks & real GUI (2011-07-01)[MM2+]

[BetterThanBestGuest]

Hello ZvezdanD and perhaps some more readers.

I would love to have one node for: same artist, same title and different lyrics.
Is this possible? I am aware of that i could look forward to a lot's of hits,
but perhaps just checking the first.. 5 textlines or something? But for me it's
just enough to have a working node for this. Thx in advance. //Btbg

(Btv, i have seen a strange behaviour in MN when i have the settingspage open
and i play music at the same time, and the played song shifts. The settingspage
is impossible to close after that. The only way after that is to close MM-process
and everything changed in MN since the last save is of course gone. Strange ey?)

[BetterThanBestGuest]

Hmm, i forgot to ask for the: Include titles with brackets [] in titlefiled.. Could you add that?
Thx //BetterThanBestGuest

The Node 'Cover type -> Not specified' shows 17 files in my collection.
All tracks have no cover saved inside the file (nor as additional picture in the same directory), says MM4.
I have checked the files with mp3tag too, there is no cover inside.

How can I fix the entries in this Node?

Sorry, but I cannot reproduce that problem. Could you be more specific when/how this happens?

I am not sure that understand that.

It seems that you have incorrect data in the Covers table. Maybe there is some add-on which could fix it. I am not sure, but maybe you could try trixmoto's Album Art Tagger.

Thank you so much ZvezdanD for this node. It's nearly exact what i wanted.
I also want the same artist, track, which ends with " [bla bla bla]" to be included in the search. Ex:
............................................
10 - Abba - Waterloo
10 - Abba - Waterloo [Feat. blah blah] <--- This is what i mean, ignoring the brackets and have these also in the results.
.............................................
(In my case anyway), there is no differens in those lyrics, so i want them to turn up to. (Sorry if my english is bad.)

About that problem, There's no need to put any energy on that since i know it, and it seems to happen only in my case.
Most likely somethings happens between MN and some other script witch is running in my MM, and it only happen when i
edit, move or add any data in MN's settingspage (Edit/Magic Nodes Settings) and play some music at the same time.
I just press "Stopbutton" and, no problemo. But that bracketthing [...] above, i just love to have. //BTBG//

MM 3.2.5.1306
MN 4.1.5 (Whoop's? I will update this to 4.2 now.)

Which another scripts are you using? Is this happens always when the playing song changes or only sometimes? Do you have the "Modeless MN Settings dialog box" option turned on or off in the Magic Nodes Options dialog box?

Greeetings -

Fairly new user of MM Gold here. If this is really a question I should be asking in the "Need Help With Addons?" section of the forum, I apologize in advance.

Would someone please explain to me what the difference is between an "incomplete" and "complete" album? In particular, I have Magic Nodes installed. Under Albums, it offers me "Complete Albums" where there are about 600 of my albums listed, and it offers me "Incomplete Albums" where the other approximately 550 of my albums are listed.

Given that none of these "albums" are actually complete abums in the sence that they would be all the songs from one published CD (virtually all of my albums are compilations of either multiple artists or single artists with songs ripped from multiple CDs), what is MagicNode or MM using to make the determination of being "complete" or "incomplete"?

And is there any reason why it matters which way MM lumps my albums as it relates to this question? Thanks MM community. I'm sure there is painfully obvious answer here to more experienced users.

Regards,
EslerJJJ

I found the answer in this Topic. Mystery resolved, thanks.

Just a quick question: does Magic Nodes 4.2 support video-specific fields such as Actor and Series?

[ScottBolton]

I'm trying to order some of my artists' discographies by using the Disc Number field. I've set it to blank for all albums, then for artists that I have several albums for I assign the position in their discography to the Disc Number. This is the code I'm using:

Code: Select all

<Group|Name:Master:|Show tracks:No>\Discographies|child of:Artist|icon:top level|MM filter:Music|Filter:Songs.DiscNumber >= '2'\<Album Artist|trim:1>\<Album Artist>\<Album|sort by:max(year)|sort order:asc>

This works partly but I'd like to concatenate the disc number to the year and album. The code aboves gives 1972 - Prosperous but I would like to see #1 - 1972 - Prosperous or something similar.

By seeing the # I can see which albums are missing; also for prolific artists who release more than one album in a year their albums would be in order.

Is this possible?

Sorry, can't help you. All I know about these rules comes from: http://www.mediamonkey.com/wiki/index.p ... ormats/4.0
It's the first time I see this <Group|Name...> and <Album|sort by:max(year)...> stuff.
Where in MM can I use this notation? Where is it documented?

[nohitter151]

This is code for Magic Nodes, it should not be posted here in it's own new thread but in the MagicNodes thread.

No, they are not currently supported.

Alright, good to know. Thanks for the quick reply and thanks for your great work enhancing MM.
