You can read but you can't set. At least not that I managed to do that.

Hi Peke! I bother again :D.
I'm trying to find a solution to this requirement: http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewto ... =2&t=88602 . No one has managed to help me so I'm trying to write to you.
It's about the Proprieties windows of the current playing track. I want to open it with a global keyboard shortcut...and when Proprieties Windows is active i want to run the button: "Rename file based on file's proprieties" using another shortcut.

Hi,
Not sure I completely follow. Can you elaborate a little?

I need to open the "File Proprieties" window of the current playing track with a global keyboard shortcut. At this time, in mm4, there is a shortcut: "Shift + Enter" that open "Files Proprieties" window for a SELECTED track. but no one for the current playing track.
After the "File Proprieties" window is opened there is a button to the right of the "File name" tab...it's name is: "Rename file(s) based on file proprieties". A shortcut key will also be welcome for this action :D

I hope this time I made myself understood. :)

Hi,
No need to open File properties, add shortcut to Auto-Organize or add toolbar button and easy access it on selected track(s) if You want to do that for current track there is Script to locate Playing track and then you can do Auto Organize.

Yeah it's all about the workflow. Thanks again for you help!

About Spek:
At this moment I'm trying to make SPEK act like a single instance software and force to open all the audio files in the same window.
If i fail to implement this I'm thinking of trying another approach: make a cmd line parameter like: "spek -i filenamepath" . I wonder if this approach (cmd) can be implemented in a MM script. What do you think ? :)

Sure it can be added to support CMD parameter, feel free to edit the Script for testing and send me PM with changes so that I can update Script online.
