Ok, here goes that PITA Nyn again. :wink: I gave the script a try but I am having trouble with the before and after settings. It is not updating with the before and after settings. I changed to 1 album before but it remains on the 3 and I changed to 10 albums after and it is showing 8 albums after the now playing track. The Full Album = false is working though. And finally, the albums are showing in the node out of order of the way they are in the now playing list. Also, is there a way to refresh the settings without restarting MM??

Off to bed now sorry, will have a look in the morning.

I don't think you can get the changes to work without restarting MM

It does depend on what tracks are in the list

1 Album1
2 Album1
3 Album1

Is only 1 album

The 3 before is a little worrying.

As for the sort there must be something else effecting it beacause it is an exact copy (mostly). :(

I can't get it not to follow the rules :(

Will need some more information (sent a pm)

[EDIT]

Ok. loading a playlist is different to adding a selection "play last"
Thats as much as I know so far.

This "grouping" from the playlist is stuffing up the sort order.

Now we're in business, it is working with my setup. :P The playlist is probably why it wasn't working because I always play from playlists.

Introduced in MediaMonkey 3.0.2.1135.

Doh!

I think I can fix the error but it will not work correctly if you use a filter.

Good script, I've been hoping someone would put something like this together. One issue though. If I play just one album, and FullAlbum=True, then the album is multiplied many times in the Now Playing Art view.

http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2099/249 ... f60e_o.jpg

The album in that photo has 12 songs, but it shows 144 songs. If I choose a song with 16 songs, it shows 256. So it's multiplying the number of songs by itself (i.e. 16x16). The Now Playing window at the top shows the right number, and the song that's playing is shown as playing in each duplicate album.

Hmm yeah if you are playing by album then there is no need to add the "fullalbum" for each track.

While I have a think about this one, if your normal playing mode is by album then set "FullAlbum = False"

Even if you play tracks randomly then if you have 2 songs in a row from the same album it will repeat the album tracks twice.

I should be able to check for this but it might take a while to work out the rigt logic.

New Version Released

' 14-05-08 Version 1.2
' Added VersionRelease Check for some functions
' 14-05-08 Version 1.3
' Fixed play by album and FullAlbum = True

I noticed in testing that

Clearing the now playing list and re-populating it adds grouping back to the node (breaking the sort)
This is a MM Bug.
Retstarting MM restores the correct sort order

[EDIT]
It looks like its much worse, any change I make to the now playing list adds the grouping to the Now Playing Art Node :(

[EDIT] Bah I can't always reproduce it :(
