It's working fine with mm4. Without any adoptions.

Hi RC,

Just testing most of the panels posted in the thread and most seem to be working fine apart from the 'allmusic' sites which are giving me Y/N script errors

Regards,

This appears to be an old mm 3 script and scripting engine for mm has changed, there might be some parts of this that need re done for mm4 ? Also i'm thinking that most sites have blocked scripts from connecting and getting the content from their site. I remember one site sueing over that or threating to sue the script author.

Hi all
Seems a while since anyone posted on this thread so Im hoping this may get picked up

Im trying to use this script to search for guitar tabs at www.ultimate-guitar.com, but cant seem to get it to work

I have tried several script line variations from the other panels but no joy

Can anyone help write the correct line for this site? or ther guitar tab sites that would be searchable

Thanks in advance!

CDBaby
This is an interesting site it finds similar artists to the one you are playing (style, genre, sound etc) looks to be a pretty good site if you are looking for something new. Does get a few no results though, but site doesn't have 126 different scripts running which is a big plus.

I'm not sure what sort of info for track title you are looking for but if it's the lyrics I have found that Letras is a huge database that seems to have an awful lot of tracks, so is LyricWiki. LRC databases are timestamped so I assume their databases are probably small and don't include all tracks from an album as is usually the case with the above two. Also being timestamped the result would need to be edited to exclude the times, (I'm only assuming this as I haven't actually tagged any tracks using these LRC databases) so I would only use these if I couldn't find the lyrics anywhere else. I'm not into Karaoke so I don't really want timestamps. I also only use the Lyric and Comment Viewer, not any inline viewer. For other stuff like Bio's and reviews etc which I tag to Comments section, I like Wikipaedia, it often gives quite interesting results for artists that you would not expect to find there, and Amazon, which often has reader reviews which I have found to be more interesting and accurate than the Amazon product description, which sometimes appears to have been written by someone who forgot to extract their head from their butt before they listened to the album. And of course LastFM, which appears to get most of their info from Wikipaedia, but also includes other stuff, like.... pretty piccies. Yahoo does give reviews as well. Most of the sites I have included in the last few days I haven't put to the test I just made sure they worked OK by playing a very popular artist that I was sure they would have to have in their databases.
And yes I do use Right-Click For Web, but I only use it for a selected artist when I am listening to something else. Actually I have just about every script in the forums :lol: couldn't do without them now, I feel sorry for people who use other Media (Audio) players, :lol: which I can't use anyway as I have over 7,000 albums (nearly 110,000 tracks) which causes everything else to stroke out as soon as I open a node on my tree. :cry:
When I have had more time to explore the over 30 sites I now have in Panels, if I find any that I think are particularly good I will let you know. I'm still looking for more.
