Toolbar_MoreFromTheSame

Hi guys, many thanks AGAIN Steegy.

Is there a way (perhaps using this script) to add hotkey for 'Find more from same Folder (Explorer)", perhaps one for currently playing and one for selected item(s)?

This would make me a very happy monkey.

Thanks

Hello Steegy,

Thank you for developing this script. The task that I am trying to find a solution for is this: In the case of a randomly playing song I would like to find more songs from the same artist, (which your script does), and then randomly play all the songs from that same artist. Could you suggest a method using your script which will achieve this goal or if that is not possible then perhaps an alternative method to accomplish this goal?

Thanks in advance,

Sub

A little late, but changing

Code: Select all

Command = "explorer " & Left(list.item(0).Path, InStrRev(list.item(0).Path, "\"))

to

Code: Select all

Command = "explorer " & """" & Left(list.item(0).Path, InStrRev(list.item(0).Path, "\")) & """"

might do the trick.

Very useful script, thanks!

One bug I've encountered:

....I select a track by the artist 10,000 Maniacs and choose Find More From Same... Folder (Explorer)

This message is generated

....

....The path to the file is: G:\Music\1\10,000 Maniacs\Our Time in Eden\10_Tolerance.mp3

Looks like that pesky comma is causing the trouble. Any thoughts for a fix?

Thanks, Steegy!

Wow! Thank you Steegy.

Just found this script.
This is what I was looking for since 2005!
(I wanted a fast way to go to Library->Location->Folder, instead of Rightclick->FindMore...)

One thing for the "Folder (Library)" to work with other languages:
Change line 196:

Code: Select all

MyChooseMore = "HD:" & list.item(0).Media.MediaLabel & " (" & MyLocation(0) & ")"

To:

Code: Select all

MyChooseMore = SDB.Localize("HD") &":" & list.item(0).Media.MediaLabel & " (" & MyLocation(0) & ")"

It's working fine with MM3. Using button->"Folder (Library)" is instantaneous. But when a library filter is active, it's taking almost 10 seconds to locate the folder. Any idea why?

Thanks

Thanks! Semms to work!

I don't have much time, but here's a *very* quick and dirty solution:

Replace this:

Code: Select all

    Case "Album":
      Set MyChooseNode = SDB.MainTree.Node_Album
      If list.item(0).AlbumArtistName = "" Then
        MyChooseMore = list.item(0).AlbumName
      Else
        MyChooseMore = list.item(0).AlbumName & " (" & list.item(0).AlbumArtistName & ")"
      End If

with this:

Code: Select all

	Case "Album":
	  MyChoice = "FolderLibrary"
      Set MyChooseNode = SDB.MainTree.Node_Artist
      MyLocation = Split(list.item(0).AlbumArtistName & "\" & list.item(0).AlbumName & "\" & "justsomedummytext","\")
	  MyChooseMore = list.item(0).AlbumArtistName

Obviously the code looks strange, but that was probably because I hadn't slept good enough when I made the script.
I'll improve (clean up) it later...

Cheers
Steegy

Hi Steegy,
great script, specially if you use the searchfunction!

But I have a small question: If I want to find more from the same album it goes to the album node. But would it be possible that it goes to the artist-node and choses the album there?

So if I have the song Emily (from Adam Green) I want it to go to "Adam Green/Gemstones" (artist node) instead of "Gemstones (Adam Green)" (album node).

Thanks!

Well, R and C are just my initials

Steegy is a name I "invented", somewhere in the begin of 2003 (on www.askearth.com). As of today, there seem to be other Steegy's on the web and I regret that.
Because I have been using this name in quite some forums and I sometimes using my real name, I sometimes add "aka RC" to say that it's me.
(I don't pretend that I was the first person ever that used "Steegy". Some well known inventions were made by different independant people in the history, almost at the same time. This may be something like that.)

Now you (all?) know the story.

Cheers
Steegy aka RC

So what does the RC stand for? We're all interested now!

by **judas** » Tue Nov 29, 2005 5:30 pm

Then the mystery is un-solved: who is this steegy everyone's been talking about lately???

Interesting, very interesting ideed!!!!

by **Steegy** » Tue Nov 29, 2005 3:29 pm

Oups!

I'm sorry for the misunderstanding!

(Steegy aka RC) NOT EQUAL TO (Roving Cowboy)

Two different persons

BTW: You are really "smart", agent, for having noticed that

Cheers
