You should be downloading an .mmip file, not a .zip. It appears that internet explorer automatically changes the extension of the file to .zip. Redownload the file with another browser (such as Firefox) or just download the file with IE, then change the extension to .mmip.

You just need to double click the .mmip file to install it.

Okay firefox did open it as a mmip file
but when I chose install, I got an error message
"product installation error"

what would be my next move?

[clatehere]

although it said "product installation error"
upon restart of MM3

the Custom Report shows up under
Tools>Extensions
in the pop up box, yet nothing happens once you select it and the uninstall is the only option provided.

any advice on next steps?

Check under File -> Create reports

[clatehere]

only the prelisted ones show...

statistics
track lists .html
track lists .xml
track lists .csv
track lists excel

are the only options. no Custom Report.
what should I do?

[trixmoto]

A "product installation error" normally means that Vista has blocked the installation package from editing the Script.ini file (which is needed to add the menu items). To fix this right click on the ".mmip" file and select "Run as administrator" or switch off the UAC before running it.

trixmoto...another great script!!!

Question...(I'm having a hard time getting my words right tonight! LOL!) ...Let's say I create a report/file with all the fields I want and finally got it 'just right'. Now I want to create a different report/file with different fields....is there a way to "save" the report criteria so I don't have to select all the fields again, add my formatting, etc?

Now, that would be a cool new feature!!

I'm trying to extract all the comments of my music.
I use this field to store multiple genres and moods...

All my comments are stored on individual lines within the comment field.

When I create a report I only see the first comment even when there are multiple comments.

Is there a way I could see all the comments?

[trixmoto]

I'm not sure why this wouldn't be working, I'll have to investigate.

I'm running MediaMonkey v.3.0.3.1137

I've noticed its only when I export to csv. In HTML it seems fine. So I'm guessing it has something to do with the linefeed. Would it possible when exporting to csv, that all the text after a LF would be in another column? That way I could use excel to create a full report on all my "track types".

Here are some screen shots:

MediaMonkey


CSV (in Excel)


CSV (TextEditor)

Note: This is not wrapping, image was cropped.

HTML (Browser)

Note: This is perfect.

If it went into other columns then this would mess up the whole report, unless it was the last field, but then this still wouldn't look right. I can fix it so that all the text appears correctly in a single field though.
