Artist vs. Composer
I have recently updated to MM 3, and have installed this latest version of ScrobblerDJ. Overall, it's working really well. A lot better than it has in a while actually. Thanks to everyone who put in the work to update the code and make it compatible with MM3.
One problem I've noticed is that, apparently, ScrobblerDJ does not discriminate between the artist performing a particular track, and the composer of the track. For example, Jethro Tull's "Song for Jeffrey" is playing. LastFM returns Ian Anderson (lead singer of Jethro Tull) as a similar artist. ScrobblerDJ says OK and plays "Song for Jeffrey" by Jethro Tull, the exact same song from the same album. Ian Anderson is listed as the composer of this song, but the artist is Jethro Tull.
There was another instance where, after querying LastFM, ScrobblerDJ informed me that it was loading "You Win Again" by Hank Williams. But what was actually loaded was the Ray Charles version of the same song. Again, Hank Williams is listed as the composer, but not the artist.
This isn't a big problem. Actually ScrobblerDJ is working better than ever for me right now. But if anyone has a fix, let me know.

Hate to be negative but this script keeps adding duplicates to the playlist. Am I doing something wrong? I have it set to 4 star and above and the rest of the settings are defaults. It keeps adding the same song even though I have plenty of other 4 star tracks by the same artist and similar artists. =(
Also, I have many versions of the same song by different artists. Is there a way to avoid repeating these?

I'm getting the following error:
There was a problem querying the database:
Error executing SQL "SELECT Songs.IDArtist, Played.PlayDate FROM (Songs INNER JOIN Played ON Songs.ID = Played.IdSong) INNER JOIN Artists ON Songs.IDArtist = Artists.ID WHERE Artists.Artist Like 'Chris Daughtry' ORDER BY Played.PlayDate DESC
" : no such column: Songs.IDArtist (1, 1)
Also, as a sidenote, installing MM3 has rendered my MP4 files unplayable.
And it seems like MM3 doesn't support my Logitech MediaPlay mouse.
Any ideas?

Hi. I receive the following error when starting MM3 after installing ScrobblerDJ:
Error #429 - Microsoft VBScript runtime error
ActiveX component can't create object: 'SongsDB.SDBApplication'
File: "C:\Program Files\MediaMonkey\Scripts\Auto\ScrobblerDJConfig.vbs", Line: 3, Column: 0
I installed ScrobblerDJ using the ScrobblerDJ126.exe file and then replaced the ScrobblerDJ.vbs in the Scripts directory with dressen's ScrobblerDJ.vbs file posted Dec 17, 2007.
What have I done wrong? Thanks.

This means that something is blocking the script from accessing MediaMonkey - this could be an antivirus or firewall or other security software. You'll need to setup this script as an exception probably.
Download my scripts at my own MediaMonkey fansite.

Good idea, but I'm still stuck with my first problem!MeMeMe wrote:Hi, Fedaykin.
It seems like your 2nd and 3rd questions don't have anything to do with this script, so if you want a response to them you'd be better off posting them in a more appropriate thread.
I can't help with the first question, I'm afraid.
Thanks!
script blocked
I am having exactly the same problem as jonp. Is it maybe windows vista related?

Could someone please help me here..
I've installed the thing that's on post 1, and I've installed the updated .vbs file on the previous page.. I have MM 3.0.1.1127..
It doesn't give me any error, like it does for others here.. and I can enter the options in the plugins -section..
But, how do I enable it? How do I make it work? How does it work?
Thanks!
