Update Play Statistics 1.0 (2013-02-03)

Post by michal.kocarek »

With this plugin you can manually adjust track play count or last play date. Hope it will be useful for you.

See download plugin & Install info here:

Changelog:
  • v1.0 2013-02-03: Initial release.
Notes:

This is one of few MediaMonkey plugins written in JScript. I hate VBScript and that’s why had chosen the second scripting language. However this should not cause any problems as MM is compatible with both of them. Basically every Windows installation has both scripting environments (JScript and VBScript installed), so there is no reason using VBScript :-)

For curious people, code is available on GitHub and available under Apache License, Version 2.0.

Always nice to have multiple options, but Bex already made a nice playcount script: http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewto ... =2&t=31809

This one looks nice and simple though, nice work!

Yeah diddleedoo made one for mm2 that i still have working in mm3, but unsure if it works in mm4,?
The way it works is through windows task scheduler, is yours able to be kicked by task scheduler at a certain time and auto change to a preset count total?

Thanks.

@nohitter151: I know Bex's script, but wanted to make something very, very simple. No doubt his addon has more funcionality.

@rovingcowboy: „Update Play Statistics“ plugin works only on top of MediaMonkey media library. The date is adjusted just in the library, without using the windows scheduler.

I tried installing this under MM 4.1 (1630) but it doesn't show up in the Scripts menu.

fwiw, I would really prefer for it to be in the context menu of a track, rather than the top menu.

Which operating system are you using? Are there other plugins installed? I have tested the plugin with MM 4.1 (1630) on Windows 8 x64 now and it works for me.

Regarding the menu placement, I understand that context-menu is more handy, but as this is more a maintenance functionality than the one you are going to use on a daily basis, I decided to place it in the Scripts menu so it doesn't bloat the interface.

Windows 7 x64. In my profile, I have the Scrobbler (not a script), ScrobblerDJ, LastFmImportPython, and UpdatePlayStats. LastFmImportPython and ScrobblerDJ have entries in my profile's scripts.ini; UpdatePlayStats does not. The importer is the only one seen in the Scripts menu.

I have no add-ons installed (besides the default) in the program directory.

So I had a general problem with plugins and uninstalled everything and reinstalled everything and now your app is showing up just fine. Thanks!

I had my first opportunity to update a playcount, a song that I played almost all the way on my iPod last night. I entered the date information:
2013-04-27 23:35

and the track now shows:
27-May-2013 11:35pm

May is not month #4. I've been trying to fix it by re-adjusting, but I can't -- because the "last played" is now in the future? What are the restrictions that are keeping me from making this right? And what do I actually need to enter in order to get the date CORRECT?

Got this problem again. I think the actual steps to reproduce are: select a track with a Last Played in the past (or none at all), start the script, and make a change in the time (not the date) in the field. Then when you click Update, the new Last Played date is exactly one month beyond the expected.

The problem @mcow reports is still a problem, although intermittent. Sometimes the script updates properly, sometimes it updates + 1 month.

I do appreciate the user-submitted scripts and addons, but it would be very nice if this bug could be fixed.

The first image shows me trying to update a track to "2017-11-13 23:06".

The second image shows the track being updated to "2017-12-13 23:06".

Sometimes the script works properly, sometimes it doesn't. I haven't been able to detect a pattern.

I don't use the script very often. I use the script when I am deleting a duplicate library track from a playlist and replacing it with the one I'm keeping. I like to put the play date of the track I'm deleting into the replacement track.
