Auto-select albums after searching tracks

powerpill-pacman · Post by **powerpill-pacman** » Sat Apr 21, 2007 2:05 am

Is there any way (via Magic Nodes or a script) to do the following:
I choose(via search) for example tracks of the genre Dubstep with more than 4 stars.
Now i'd like to add the tracks plus the tracks belonging to the album/single, which the track is from, to a playlist or send them to my mobile player.
Thanks for any help on this.

I assume nobody has any idea on this one?
Could any of the High quality scripters please say, whether this is possible at all, 'cause i think it'd be a neat feature.

a right click > enqueue all of this album's tracks script or feature would be swell.

This would avoid the need to use the 'find more from same album' then selecting that album/tracks and enqueuing, then going back to wherever you were.

Yeah, that's exactly what i need plus the ability to do that with songs from different albums/artists, so that it can be used from within a playlist.

I think this would be possible via scripting. You can access the list of albums of all the selected tracks very easily (SDB.SelectedSongList.Albums) and then loop through them enqueuing all the tracks. I'm rather busy at the moment but if no other scripters have taken up the challenge in a week or so I'll take a look at it.

That would be glorious

, for i don't think i'll ever have the patience to learn scripting (i've tried countless times to program little thingies).

When you say you want all the tracks enqueued, do you mean that you want them all added in order to the end of the now playing list?

This is the part where PrettyPictures comes in handy, if you search some tracks, it will load the album art. Simply right click on the album art and select 'insert next album' and it will load the track you just found as well as the other tracks that are on the album even if they didn't come up in your 'search list'.
