MediaMonkey forum

Just installed 3.5 - Need help on a few things.

1. The "List" button is greyed out & can't be selected - How is this supposed to work?

2. There is an item under Tools - Scripts - " Auto Album DJ - Play a New Album" but nothing happens when you select it. Is this the new script to assign a hot key?

Regards

Well this confuses me because the "List" button is never greyed out for me and there's no code to do this. Yes, the menu item is a symptom of adding the option for the hotkey to be assigned to, but it should perform the say action as the toolbar button.

Strange but true unfortunately. I just reinstalled 3.5 & i'm getting the same problems. BTW is list meant to show me all my Genres so i can select the ones i wan't. I remember asking for this a while ago.

Regards

Yes, the button provides a list of all genres to select. You could try finding line 392... ...and adding an extra line to give... ...but this should be the default anyway!

I changed the script as you suggested but still not working which is a pity because i was looking forward to having this feature.

Regards

Can you please email me a screenshot of the options screen? What happens when you click on the "List" button exactly?

Same for me with latest 3.5 version:



Also, genres I manually enter in the field, just disapear when getting back to this window.

Thanks

Yeah, there's some weirdness going on with this button, although there's no code to do anything. Just going into the options again when you are playing tracks and in the now playing view.

MM2 version on your site is still 3.0.

Are there not going to be any more updates for MM2?

Nope, I'm not updating any of my scripts for MM2 anymore, sorry. This is mostly because many of the updates are using new functions only available in MM3.

Thanks to trixmoto's explanation

I've been having problems with songs repeating despite using Shuffle and Randomize List. What in my settings do I need to change to make the memory piece of this script work? I don't ever want to hear a song twice unless I manually choose to do so, or, until every song in my library has been played once. Right now that's all I care about. I tried to read thru the 23 pages in the forum so forgive me if I missed something. Please advise and thank you.

Well if you have albums that have not been played then you can use the "unplayed" option. However, once your albums have all been listened to there is nothing in this script to achieve this. There are options that can be used to reduce the likelihood ("minimum days since last played" and the memory) but to ensure that all albums are played before repeating any isn't really random in the sense of this script. To do that you would need to in one go randomise the list of albums and then play the list in order. This script picks a single random album when another is needed, by definition this randomness means that repeats are possible.

Thank you for including a hotkey in this great script. However, I am not sure how to implement it, trying to assign a key to Execute Script: AutoAlbumDJ has no effect and I don't see any other option.

Also (although this may not be new), I cannot seem to set minimum rating to 4.5 stars. All the tracks in my albums are rated the same (I rate albums as a whole, not individual tracks) but when I set the min. rating to 4.5, albums rated 4 stars still appear. Yet, setting the min. rating to 5 gives only 5 star albums.

Not sure if this is a bug or not, or just me being silly...

Thanks for any insight you can give.

Well you can't execute the script, per se, as this script is an AutoDJ source and is therefore not executable by itself. However you should be able to select "Auto Album DJ - Play a new album" as a hotkey action. I'll check out the ratings boundaries in the next version, maybe my function is not accurate.
