Copy and Swap Fields 1.0.1 [#20211]

Post by zabadack »

I am finding the learning curve with MMW5 very steep so please accept my apologies in advance for such an elemental question.
I downloaded Copy and Swap Fields 1.0.1
I installed it and MMW5 said installation was complete.
MMW5 restarted.
How do I access /run the add-on.
I have performed Google searches and it would seem the question is too elementary to warrant a mention.

Thank you again Lowlander.
Unfortunately it does not do what I want (Copy Date to Original Date as we discussed in another thread.
My search found a couple of very old scripts but I did not know if they would work with 5.
Can you recommend one?

hello
is it possible to add the date for example: 2007
to the album field for example: The Reminder
this would give the result in the album field: The Reminder 2007
Hi jfg,
Sorry, I don't think I ever saw that reply. Unfortunately that request is outside the scope of this addon. I think what you're looking for may be possible in ZvezdanD's Find and Replace addon, which is currently only available for MediaMonkey 4 (viewtopic.php?t=28510). I would send him a request asking for it to be brought to MM5.

Sorry for taking so long to get to this. I've now released Copy and Swap Fields version 1.1.2 which introduces Lyricist and Genre, as well as fixing the bugs that were introduced in 1.1.0 which was pulled from the addon repo a while ago.

Hi drakinite,

Thank you very much for your Copy and Swap Fields add-on !

However, with the versions 1.1.2 and 1.1.1, as soon as I put my mouse on the "Copy field to field..." button in the menu, MediaMonkey crashes with the following error message:

https://ibb.co/7VL3ndg

This did not happen with the version 1.0 and 1.0.1.

Do you have a solution to this problem ?

Best regards,

I just attempted to reproduce the issue on the MM 5.0.0 release and hovering over "Edit tags -> Copy field to field" didn't cause a crash, so I'm not sure if it's a version compatibility issue.

If the crash still occurs after installing the latest MM 5.1 beta, please let me know what node and view you're using that causes the crash.

Hello!
I am in need of doing a massive swap from the Publisher field to Producer field!!! All this time I never noticed there was a Producer field and I have been using Publisher in its place! Can you please help?? I have never used scripts before so if it is possible to update the add-on file and I can re-install a new version, that would be ideal!
TIA much love, PBiz

The Add-On called "Copy Field to Field" in Mediamonkey 5 is great. Problem is that I wanted to copy the field of <Composer> to the field of <Original Artist> and that choice of <Original Artist> does not show up on the pick list. Am I doing something wrong...?

Daikininte,
Could you please add "Involved people" to the list of destination fields.
Some downloaded CD metadata puts a lot of info in to the "Artist" field, which I would prefer to use as a subset of Album Artist, and being able to copy the dowloaded data off to "Involved people" would help me do that without losing useful information.
As a more general question, what stops the list of from and to fields from being the entire set of text-compatible fields in MM?
Thanks
Matt
