There should be as usual into the tree window and under Edit/Delete Magic Node submenu.
Maybe you could first manually delete the old CustomNodeMasks section of the INI file.

Yes that did the trick but now I need to recreate them again...

I'm confused. I'm still not seeing any masks. I have a Magic Nodes vbs file and an ini file in the scripts/auto folder.
I even completely deleted MagicNodes from MediaMonkey before installing the latest version. Still no masks.

Sorry to all for inconvenience. I added short instruction about this into the Important section in the first post of this thread. Before installation you should remove all your old masks. There are 2 possibilities for this:
- manually delete the CustomNodeMasks section of the MediaMonkey.INI file, or
- re-install the script and during uninstall choose Yes to delete all settings.
I also wrote in the Installation section about the MagicNode.INI file which is copied into Auto folder during installation. It is used only if the CustomNodeMasks section is empty. During its work, the Magic Nodes script stores masks into the MediaMonkey.INI file, not in MagicNode.INI.

OK folks. I updated installation package, so now during installation you could choose if you want to merge new masks with the old ones. Anyway, before installation please make a backup of the MediaMonkey.ini file to be safe.
Keep in mind that there is hard-coded limit on 100 masks and the menu with 100 items could overlap full screen.

Hmmm ..... why does the MagicNodes node open every time I start MM? It doesn't matter which node I'm on when I close it, MagicNodes node opens when I restart.

I don't have it actually open a MagicNodes node on startup, but it always opens with the MagicNodes expanded rather than collapsed.
I would rather MediaMonkey open with MagicNodes collapsed.

I have been looking at the Artist Does Not Equal Original Artist node.
Unfortunately, in many cases, the "Original Artist" field in many of my tracks is blank.
Is there something that I can add to the mask below to stop MagicNodes from reporting on tracks with blank "Original Artist" fields?
Artist Does Not Equal Original Artist|Icon:Top level|Filter:UpperW(Songs.Artist) <> UpperW(<Original Artist>)\<Artist>

We should distinguish selecting (opening) of some node from expanding/collapsing of some branch.
1. By default during startup the Magic Nodes
select a node which was last selected before exit. This is default behavior of MM3 (but not MM2] - it select its built-in nodes in such way as well.
2. By default during startup the Magic Nodes
expand its main branch. Currently, you have only one choice:
Install
TweakMonkey, go to Tools / Options / TweakMonkey & Script Options / Tree Node Options, check Node to be selected at startup, choose Library.

Very interesting question. I think I will update mentioned mask with a regard on this. Here is a solution:
Code: Select all
Artist Does Not Equal Original Artist|Icon:Top level|Filter:UpperW(Songs.Artist) <> UpperW(<Original Artist>) AND <Original Artist> <> ''\<Artist>

Thank you ZvezdanD.
Just one other question.
I am trying to filter out my online radio playlists from:
<Group|name:Playing Statistics|Show tracks:No>\Played This Week|Icon:Top level|Filter:<Weeks since last played> = 0\<Album|Statistic:Min(Days since last played)>
using:
Filter:<Path> Not Like 'http://%'
But I cannot get it to work for:
Playing Statistics > Played Today
Playing Statistics > Played This Week
Do you have an idea how?
Thanks...
Here is an example of one of my online radio streams stations that I wish to filter from the mask:

Did you tried with:

Thanks ZvezdanD, that works. I didn't use AND
