I don't think there's a more automatic way of creating the playlist. I don't think you can trigger a script automatically when you do a sync.

Thank you, I'm glad you find my scripts useful! :D

If you click the image in my signature it will take you to my website, the installer's for all my scripts are on there. I have far too many scripts (and I'm far too lazy) to keep updating links on the forum as well as the links on my website! :)

This is a typo. If you open the script file in a text editor and find line 86...

Code: Select all

prog.Text = "Batch M3U Creator: Processing album '"&iter.ValueByName("Name")&"' - "&prog.Value&"/"&prog.MaxValue&"..."
Replace it with...

Code: Select all

prog.Text = "Batch M3U Creator: Processing album '"&iter.ValueByName("Album")&"' - "&prog.Value&"/"&prog.MaxValue&"..."

Maybe the thread title should reflect the version number change? :)

Moved into correct thread as requested...

One issue - when I load folders of .flac files in MM, double digit track numbers aren't going last, but after "1" - like track1.flac, track10.flac, track11.flac, track2.flac. Anyway to create the .m3u file to recognize teens? Thanks.

I've not seen this before. I'm using the album object provided by MM so I would have though they'd be sorting the tracks correctly. I'll have to take a closer look.

Great Script!

I was about to do all this manually. You have saved me days of work. Thanks for such an amazing script!

I have a simple n00b question though: When and where do I specify the playlist folder? When I selected the script it ran straight away and didn't give me the option to choose, so all the playlists have been created in their album folders. I wanted to have them all in a seperate folder.

If you open the "BatchM3UCreator.vbs" file in a text editor you'll find this setting on line 33...

Code: Select all

Dim Directory : Directory = "" 'leave blank to put playlists in album folders
There are some others around it as well which you might like to play with. :)
