Missing Cue Sheet

trixmoto · Post by **trixmoto** » Wed Aug 23, 2006 3:22 am

This is a new script, requested by Bex to go with my "Cue Reader" script. It creates a node under the 'Files To Edit' node which has two of its own children, Yes and No. All songs longer than the length specified in the variable Millis (default is 10mins) will be checked and listed under Yes if they are missing a cuesheet (No if they have one).

The installer is available for download from my website.

Wow, thanks a million!

Great and fast script. Nice icons!
The only problem now is that i just found 596 files without a cue sheet!

But thats what the scripts is for, isn't it?

I guess I'll pay a few visits to cuesheet heaven in the near future!

Thanks again!

Glad you like! I almost released it with the Yes and No populating the wrong way round!

Luckily I realised my flawed logic just in time!

Trixi!
I have two more wíshes.
1. Make this script as fast as Missing lyrics script
2. I third subnode which displays files which has a cue sheet in the same folder but it has the wrong name (and no correctly named cue sheet exists in folder)

Is it possible?

1) I don't see how it can be any faster. The reason it is slower is that it has to check the filesystem to see if the file exists, rather than just checking the database (as for lyrics).

2) This is possible, but will be even slower!

1. Ok, I thought the speed increase there had todo with using SDB.MainTracksWindow.AddTracksFromQuery(SQL)?

2. It's better to have that node node even if it gets slower...

Thanks!

New version (1.1) is now available from my website.

It also adds a Maybe child which list files in a folder that contains a cuesheet that does not match any of the files in that folder. I think that's what Bex wanted!

N.B. This Maybe node shows a progress bar because it does take a while, depending on the size of your collection of course. Don't forget to change the MyMusic variable in the script or the Maybe node won't work!

You can also easily change the names of these nodes using the variables at the top of the script.
