I use prettypictures 0.9.2 for MM 3 and don't understand this:

1. When I doubleklick an Album, why don't play it?
2. I can scroll forward, but it is difficult, to scroll back (with my mouse)
3. When I klick on an Album in prettypictures, why don't jump the MM-Browser to this Album?

Thanks for your helps..... :-)

1. see my post above.
2. have you tried checking the scroll setting in visual options (right click on PP background and choose visual options)
3. last I checked it wasn't possible.

how can i fix this?
is you library node changed at all? - hidden.. modified, etc.

does it happen EVERYTIME you do it or just certain albums?

trixmoto is correct... those buttons shouldn't exist in the MM3 version of the script.

v 0.9.3 is uploaded on my site now.

Main changes since v0.9.2:

- terminating the cache progress bar now works (still issues with terminating automatically on an MM shutdown)
- instructions should no longer appear after every cache
- preliminary support for MediaMonkey 2 - please point out any issues

Clicking on an album cover does nothing

Post by Harsh »

I have MM 3.0.2.1134 and PrettyPictures installed. Pretty pictures works great, it caches the album art and looks awesome. But when I click on the album cover it doesn't add album to now playing or browse to the album. I tried right clicking and select go to album and still nothing happened. Show Album w/o covers works fine though.


Any help?

Thanks.

Thanks for the script, it's cool.

I sometimes COMPLETELY RANDOMLY get this error though:

Error #-2147024726 -
File: "C:\Program Files\MediaMonkey\Scripts\Auto\PrettyPictures.vbs", Line 880, Column: 2.
which follows with
Error executing script event.

I haven't looked in this file since I know nothing about scripting. Is it a known bug? If so, what effect does it have?

The funny thing is though the script seems to work fine, the album plays when I double click covers, expands and contracts properly etc. But there might be something else I haven't noticed.

Thanks for your time

I'm also not able to play an album via PP.

I'm using Windows XP SP3 with AntiVir (Personal Edition) and Zone Alarm Pro. However, deacitivating Zone Alarm didn't help. I don't have any other anti-spyware tool or something like that running.

Is there a way for the artist and album sorting to ignore the lead "the" in both names? Thanks for the script! It has improved greatly from the last version I used (v0.51). I didn't know it was still being updated!
