Well, the music sure looks like it is in the MMW library. The first thing that I did with MMW was to have it scan for all of the music. MMW found and listed all of our music files out of the iTunes folder.

Is there something more necessary that I should have done?

Hi,

I try iPlaylist Importer and it import all my iTunes Playlist but did not work if the Playlist or the trackname have special characters or german umlauts in it.

Is there a possibility to correct this?

Another point is that the script always check all files at the playlist with the library but if you often sync your iTunes Plalists with MM it would be nice to skip this in some cases!

Regards, Pauli

Hi, trixmoto.

First I would like to issue a WARNING to all users who read this:

>> BEWARE: THIS SCRIPT MAY CORRUPT YOUR MEDIA FILES!

I'd like to try and fix this script to read UTF-8, if possible.
Is the code you have posted on first page of this thread the latest version [DATE : 25/05/2008] ?

I just installed MM and tried downloaded your script from your web site as iPlaylistImporter16.mmip.

I'm not sure if I installed it correctly. I used the MM Tools menu: Extensions... to add iPlaylistImporter16.mmip
This method is different from what is included in the text of the vbs code, which says:

Code: Select all

    ' INSTALL: Copy to Scripts directory and add the following to Scripts.ini
    '          Don't forget to remove comments (') and set the order appropriately
I didn't do that, so perhaps my experience of file corruption was due to user error.

In any case, what happened to me was that I have a great many mp3 files with tags in UTF-8 that got incorrectly mangled by iPlaylistImporter16.

That wouldn't have been so bad except, for some reason, this garbled text was then WRITTEN to the media files, thereby corrupting about half of my music library [1.5 TB]. Fortunately, I was able to restore from backup.

I'd like to see if I can fix your script and contribute to the MM community.
Hope to hear from you, but if not I'll take a stab at it anyway.

I have found some promising info here:
http://wiki.mcneel.com/developer/script ... d=noscript
The File System Object, generally used by VBScript devlopers to read and write text files, can read only ASCII or Unicode text files. You cannot use it to read or write UTF-8 encoded text files.

But, if you can use Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects (ADO), you can read UTF-8 encoded text files like this:

Code: Select all

Dim objStream, strData
Set objStream = CreateObject("ADODB.Stream")
objStream.CharSet = "utf-8"
objStream.Open
objStream.LoadFromFile("C:\Users\admin\Desktop\test.txt")
strData = objStream.ReadText()
It seems that the problem is that you are using the wrong File System Object.

Yep. I've gone ahead and fixed the problem by using ADODB.Stream to read iTunes playlist as UTF-8.

I'll wait a bit to see if trixmoto wants to publish my fix, otherwise I'll upload the source code here in a day or two.

Here is a test script which reproduces the two bugs I've mentioned previously.

Tomorrow, I'll post the fix for both problems.

    ' DATE : 5/13/2015
    '
    ' DEBUG: Corruption of mp3 file tag data when reading UTF-8 encoded XML file as ASCII
    '
    ' STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
    '	0. Edit an mp3 file, named test.mp3, so that the Title tag contains a character with diacritical marks [i.e., non-ASCII].
    '		In this example, my Title tag was 'Águas de Março'
    '	1. Create iTunes playlist, 'Test', containing the above file with non-ASCII tag.
    '	2. Export this playlist from iTunes as 'Test.xml'
    '	3. Install this script, per instructions below.
    '	4. Launch MediaMonkey and remove any songs in the Library database and playlists.
    '	5. Confirm that the default MediaMonkey Option is set:
    '		> Tools > Options > Library > Tags & Playlists
    '			Update tags when editing properties
    '	6. Run this script (with default ShowBug=True) 
    '		Tools > Scripts > iPlaylistImporter161 
    '			Open the 'Test.xml' playlist, created above.
    '	7. Inspect the value of test.mp3 Title tag
    '
    ' EXPECTED RESULT: no change. Title tage should still contain diacritical character(s):
    '		Águas de Março
    '
    ' ACTUAL RESULT [bug]: The diactrical character(s) in Title tag will have been changed to:
    '		Águas De Março
    '	This script and/or MediaMonkey should not have altered the tag data without warning.
	'
	' To test the fix for the tag corruption, set ShowBug = False
	' Library tag data will be corrupted, but this won't be written back to the mp3 file anymore.

Thanks, trixmoto, and hats off to you for the creation of this very great script!

I'll post the update in another day or two - we are just trying to decide on best venue, and format, for release.

Hi Pauli,

Can you expand upon this a bit more?
I think I understand what you are saying, I'd just like to better understand your particular use case.
It sounds like you are having to use iTunes as your main playlist creator, but then you need to use MM to sync devices and iTunes playlists?
Is this because you are syncing to a non-Apple device?
Why do you continually sync Apple playlists to MM, why not just forget about iTunes?

Since I'm taking over support on this script, I'm trying to fix as many things as possible right now.

You will be happy to know that German language support is already fixed. That part was easy.

The reason I haven't released the update yet is because I expanded my testing to include other languages and have found a major problem with Korean, Japanese, Chinese, as well as some simple symbols that use 3-bit unicode character encodings.

If you would like an advance beta version of iPlaylist Importer 1.7 just let me know and I can send you something, prior to the official release.

Hi.

Yes I use iTunes as master system, but for several jobs I use MM. So I want to transfer all my Playlists to MM but without resync or control all tracks! All tracks and the mediathek is the same, so the importer must only import all playlists from iTunes.

Another point is to select which playlist to import from iTunes and to MM. Because some playlist are special ones only used at iTunes!

Thanks, Pauli

If I understand you correctly, this problem is already fixed.
The current version 1.6 was updating tags for every track imported. That is no longer the case.
In upcoming v. 1.7 only the MM library database is updated from iTunes playlist info but this info is never written to the mp3 file tags anymore.

So, if I understand you correctly, you would like the chance to approve every playlist for import or not?
Let me know if this is what you want.

I could add that easily, but, in my case, I have hundreds of playlists and I prefer to simply always update them all, on import, with no dialogs.

I think that's it! in 1.6 after importing the playlists every track is checked if the track is in the MM DB and if not it is add - this should be unnecessary.

Selecting the Playlist is a nice to have. So the Playlist of all tracks is importing but nobody need this. So I think a windows with all playlist (default all selected) should be open and there I could deselect some of the list before import is starting. Perfect would be saving the selection future imports.

Well, I haven't changed that aspect yet - I only stopped the updating of file metadata tags, not the importing of tracks.

I think, if you don't want to import tracks from a playlist into MM, you should choose not to import the playlist at all.

That is an option that is the default currently, when the imported playlist name collides with an existing name, though it is not documented.

The current interface is misleading where it asks: "Do you want to overwrite?" actually, if you say YES, the playlist is not overwritten, it is merged with incoming tracks.
Also, it is not explained that, if you say NO, then the playlist import is skipped over, and no tracks in the playlist are added to MM library.

At least, this is my analysis of current behavior. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Personally, I like being able to import tracks by importing playlists that contain them since the only other option to sync my iTunes with MM libraries is to tell MM to import an entire directory, which may contain files that I have deleted from iTunes library and don't want to import - but my iTunes playlists always reflect the current state that I want to sync with MM.

Ok. I understand what you want.
This would be nice, but I'm afraid it is beyond my abilities to implement in VBscript.
Probably a different plugin interface would be required to support this.

If you know of any MM plugin that is able to present such an interface, please let me know.
Thanks

For example the Backup Plugin (find here at the forum in version 6.0) open different windows for settings etc.!

Playlists are listed, but no content

Post by Zibby »

Hello -
I'm new to MM and having a difficult time getting playlists imported from iTunes. I have used the plug-in and it imports the files into the library and also imports the playlists' names. But when I open any playlist, it's empty. I've cleared the database several times and started by scratch, using the Add/Rescan function first, and then using the Playlist Import script first. Nothing seems to get the files in the playlists. Other than that, everything seems to be working.

Any ideas??

Thanks.
