Agreed. Super needed in MM5.
Especially as I upgrade older MP3s with FLACs, copying the ratings, playlist associations, and play accounts is crucial

Came here to add my vote. I also use it to copy all tags from one .mp4 movie to an upgraded .mp4 of the same movie.
I am an MM4 forever unless you add this add-on to MM5.

I am also forever on MM4 because of stuff like this. :-?

Only thing keeping me at MM4 as well. Replace an album with another (ie: MP3 to FLAC or similar) and I want to copy the playlist references and ratings. It's so essential at least for the basic same-album upgrade.

@rusty or @lowlander can this functionality be included in the upcoming MM5 versions?

Does this work in latest version of MM5 Gold?

That it can't, it can only copy/paste metadata from tag to tag within a file.

Lowlander: Thanks but I didn't see how to copy playlist association from one file to another using the "Copy and Swap Fields" add-on you provided the link to.

What I need: the ability to copy the metadata (including rating and playlist membership) from one list (i.e. old version of CD) to new list (i.e. new version of CD).

especially "Copy/Paste MetaData".

Upvote adding "Advanced Duplicate Find & Fix" functionality to native MM5, especially "Copy/Paste MetaData".

Be nice if someone updated this for MM5 or how about build this natively into MM5 itself. It can't be that hard.

Another thing I've found that seems to work is to temporarily rename the script from AdvancedDuplicateFindFix.vbs to AdvancedDuplicateFindFix.bak (or any extension that prevents it from being recognized as a script), open MediaMonkey and select any song and press Play. Close out MediaMonkey and rename the script back to its normal name, and it no longer seems to freeze.

For me this addon is a nightmare
I must re install Media Monkey every time advanced duplicate find & fix operates and freezes MM
All i hope is to be able to remove it, but i even don't know how...

I am having the same issue as you. Would love to know how to fix it. Luckily I have not had to reinstall MM yet.

When I launch MM, in the bottom status bar of MM it says "Loading AdvancedDuplicateFindFix.vbs". Everything else in MM freezes while this is loading. After waiting for a few minutes, it is still the same. I then force MM to shutdown via the Task Manager. Restarted it many times (more than 10 today) and same thing happened. Then managed to get it working somehow, not sure how but It appears to be ok at the moment.

I assume that this issue is being caused by this Addon but maybe it could be from another Addon, conflict with this Addon or something else in MM. I also have MiniLyrics installed and this opens automatically when MM starts. And also scan library continuously and at startup are turned on.

I'm having this exact same issue, and I found a sort of workaround for it... I've found that if you plug in a USB media device while it's frozen (I use my phone), close MediaMonkey from the task manager and immediately open it back up with the device still plugged in, it won't freeze and everything loads.

Adding my voice to the chorus calling for an updated version for MM5. I absolutely need this extension, so until a new version - or equivalent functionality - is available for MM5, I'm stuck with having to work on my library in MM4 then re-import/upgrade it into MM5 whenever I want to sync to my newer iPhone - and lose my play count updates from the phone in the process because I can't sync them back to MM4. :(

Someone? Anyone? Please?!

This tool, or similiar functionality needs to be implemented in MM5.

I can't work without it, and I am perfectly fine to work without MM5, but staying with MM4 for that matter.

Also hoping for a version for MM5...
