Lyricator - Batch Lyrics Updater v1.00 [OUTDATED]

[Owyn]

Fixed in 1.0.9.20 (on my installation):

[*]Unable to find CSS file

I had a feeling that your problem was also related to the drive fix. I had a workaround in the code that was no longer needed and was causing other problems.

[*]Only writes lyrics for 1st of all select tracks[/list]

The fix for the first lyrics problem is really good news. This long standing, and unreproducible at my end, problem may finally be fixed.

New issues (none are "showstoppers"):

[*](usability) Cannot deselect check box by clicking the check box directly. Workaround: click text in another column of that row. (Clicking the check box to select works normally.)

Will test & fix.

[*](appearance) Some rows (below the initial screen) are not colored blue, regardless of checkbox status. (Tested by selecting and deselected without scrolling the window.

The blue tracks show where an alternate look-up for artist/title was required. e.g. "Allison Krauss" instead of "Allison Krauss & Union Station"

[*](appearance) Some check boxes are smaller (not bold?) than others.

Ummm. Ok. I can see the symptom. Not sure how that could happen, but, will look into it.

Tried the latest version on my PC, no change in behaviour. I'm sorry... But don't care 'bout this, when (or if ) I find some time to reinstall Windows, I think everything will be fine. And if not, who cares, on my netbook everything is great

Psigh. Well I could dream about it being fixed.

Yep, sorry I didn't specify for my implementation. I'm using multiple partitions, p:\program files\mediamonkey, and u:\documents and settings\[user]\Local settings\Temp .... Media files being worked on are usually on W:\mp3\src\ or \\192.168.1.11\drive\share1\mp3\src\ . Worst case scenario for you on my laptop?

Ah, I misunderstood what the "blue row" meant. And I wouldn't worry about the checkbox bolding ... something to muse about on long cold sleepless nights.

Owyn,

Just to get back to you, I've installed the lastest update and still the get the error below. I get this error if I use Tools>Scripts>.
"Cannot find 'file:///R:Temp/Lyricator.htm'. Make sure path or internet address is correct."

I get a different error if I get to the script from "Right Click for Scripts". Then I get "Error happened during script execution: Unknown name."

I may not know enough about this script...I could have the setting wrong as I didn't change them at all. I will do some more studying and see if it's me.

"Cannot find 'file:///R:Temp/Lyricator.htm'. Make sure path or internet address is correct."

That looks like you may have a bad setting for MM TempDir in your MediaMonkey.ini file. That is a relative and not an absolute path. e.g.

Code: Select all

[System]
...
TempDir=G:\MMDATA\Temp\
...

I get a different error if I get to the script from "Right Click for Scripts". Then I get "Error happened during script execution: Unknown name."

I have seen this if I did not exit and restart MM after (re)installing the script. Intermittently before, consistently after installing Right Click for Scripts.

Edit: The TempDir setting can be edited using Tools->Options->General:Temporary Directory.

Oops ... problem exhibiting itself again. Have tried it with tracks in multiple directories, or all in the same directory. Tracks were in w:\mp3\src\beastie boys\Pauls Boutique\ (local partition, not a mapped network drive). Here's the temp file:

Owyn,

My Temp directory is R:Temp\

Looks like I have to change it. R is my external hard drive where MM resides. I'll change it and see what happens.

"R:\Temp\" is ok if the folder exists. "R:Temp\" is not because it specifies a path relative to the current directory for R:.

Oops ... problem exhibiting itself again.

Bah. Back to the drawing board. This particular bug is driving me crazy. It only occurs for some users, and (un)fortunately I am not one of them. I have not been able to reproduce it.

[Firetribe]

Owyn, should I wait with reinstalling my computer, just for testing purposes? If it helps you, format:C can wait...

Owyn, should I wait with reinstalling my computer, just for testing purposes? If it helps you, format:C can wait...

Good idea. Worth it to have a known localized test bed. Thanks.

[Firetribe]

No problem...with everything working fine on my netbook, I can wait for my PC... And, in fact, I don't have any time for reinstalling right now, I'm facing my exams...

[Vyper]

I'm thinking Owyn has made eradicating this bug his life's mission.

[Firetribe]

Seems like that...
