There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it. A couple times when it died after 100 records or so, I reran the exact same selection of 500 records over again and it ran fine.
Yep. Although I love this script, I made the same observation. I am trying to avoid using it right now as with 20.000+ tracks it is a lot of work doing this in 50+ batches and still I will get the occasional fatal error. Good thing is that I never had any damages to the tags or the database with the errors. It is just time consuming to find the track where the script stopped working to start it over again from there...
Nevertheless: Thanks a lot to trixmoto for a great and very useful script. I am confident you will hunt down this bug sometime.

Fortunately the status bar towards the bottom of the screen tells you what record it was on when it died, and since the selection is highlighted, you can approximate where that last record is and do a shift-click and MM will tell you which record you're on in the selection.
I could be wrong, but I'm guessing this is not a problem with the script itself, but a problem with the MM scripting engine (if I have my terminology correct).
This question has probably already been answered in this thread, but I've been unable to find an answer.
When I "whitewash" my album art tags/links the album art still displays even after restarting media monkey and refreshing the entries. I can see that some of it has stopped displaying, but a majority of it remains. When I right click on the album, or have an album selected with the album art viewer, no artwork displays. So it seems that it is just residual. But why does the art still display and how do I get rid of it so I can be absolutely sure that the new art I add is what shows up when I view the album?
I've come across a problem with option 6: Remove artwork not matching size.
My artwork files are stored in the album folder and each track has link to the artwork files. When I run AAT to remove all artwork with size smaller than 100x100 (and having "Delete Image Files" checked) AAT deletes the album artwork jpg but only removes the link in the first track of the album, leaving empty links in the second to last tracks of the album. The expected behavior is of course that all links are removed.

Has anybody else come across this problem?
Can't you just re-run AAT with remove invalid artwork setting?

Need help? Got a suggestion? Can't find something?
Please no PMs in reply to a post. Just reply in the thread.
The script should only need to remove the artwork from the first track because updating it should update all the tracks in the album. This assumes that you have that tickbox ticked on the properties screen though. I'm glad you've found another way to sort it anyway.

Just installed the script and i'm getting the line 982 column 8 error when i select option "07. Remove artwork which is invalid" too. Any ideas on this? Edit- nevemind.
** EDIT ** Just a note, after removing some unused genres with another of Trixmotos great scripts and upgrading my db after installing the latest beta version, I have been able to run option 7 with much greater success. Thanks for an awesome script which has saved me hours of manually removing that unwanted default folder.jpg image from each mp3.
I tried to install the script using the ".exe" file you have available for download, but I see nothing on the Scripts sub-menu. I'm using MediaMonkey 3.0.7.1191. Any help would be appreciated.
Avoid "Product installation error"

If I go to a folder in the music three, select it and then start the script. I get an error message after 2-300 songs (of approx. 4000 songs). BUT if I select all these in the list of songs and do the same, I get no error message.
Hmmm, well the script is obviously doing the same thing. I guess it must be something to do with the way that the tracks are read by MM. I'll contact the devs and see what they say.
