On XP, reinstalling works and has worked for many people.

Thanks again.

I was wondering if it’s possible to modify the RemoveDeadTracks script to update the location path, so something like this:
if (currTrack.Location == “d:\Music\blah*”)
{
currTrack.Location = “new path”

}

Is something like that possible?
Thanks

BUT I have my main machine running Vista and it does not work. Do you know how I can edit the code to get around this:
“could not locate automation class named “itunes.application”

Have you found a fix for Vista?

var ItunesApp = WScript.CreateObject(”iTunes.Application”);
var mainLibrary = ItunesApp.LibraryPlaylist;

I don’t know much or anything about jscript so I’m looking for help from resources I’ve found in piecing together the script that was once working.

Thanks … any help would be appreciated.

Reinstalling iTunes has always fixed it in all the cases I’ve seen.

otherwise.. I guess I have to pray that the next version of itunes (which shouldn’t be far), will fix it.. but I don’t have high hopes!

However, since you’ve tried that already, you’re probably out of luck, because that is the only answer to your problem.

I am also getting this and have tried uninstalling and resintalling numerous times (even older versions) but it has not fixed…
I wrote some scripts which makes itunes useful for me, but with them not working it’s completely useless.

Dale.

seems to work only for some songs. i downloaded a night of lyrics with evillyrics and
then run the script to automatically write the lyrics into the tag. only 22 song over
3 hundreds. ..even if the updateall is set to true.
what can i do to make the script running?

From iTunes SDK, there is AddFile() function to the LibraryPlaylist out of iPod source. It works for most of iPod devices, but to iPod Shuffle, AddFile() function will return 0xA0040203 (ITUNES_E_OBJECTLOCKED)!

Any idea about this?
Or do you know of any other function such as “Autofill” for iPod Shuffle?
Thanks.

I use iTunes 7.6.1 and Win Xp2. In my registry do not exist the Class iTunes.Application. In regedit (HKCR), I found: IpodManager Class, ItunesDevices Class, ItunesService Class, ServiceDiagnostics Class and iPodUpdaterInterface Class.

Any ideas? Thanks.

Is it possible to write a script that increases the playcount.

It’s a feature that I’d like to use together with my Serato Scratch Live DJ-software.

I’d want the playcount to increase when I play the track in SSL.

Thanx

I’m getting a runtime error when it tries so search a collection when it can’t find anthing in the library already. So the first issue is: When a collection is blank as the result of a search is there a way to determine that before the code fails when using the enumerate statement?

Second issue I’m having is when it has a valid collection,and I try to verify duplicates, it always matches even though the echo statement shows them not matching.

Here’s the script:
/*
addToiTunes.js [video type: 0=music 1=movie 2=musicvideo 3=tv show] [Show] [Title] [AirDateTime]
*/

var ItunesApp = WScript.CreateObject(”iTunes.Application”);
var mainLibrary = ItunesApp.LibraryPlaylist;

var file;
var videoKind;
var show;
var title;
var emumItems;

if(WScript.Arguments.length > 0)
{
file = WScript.Arguments(0);
}

if(WScript.Arguments.length > 1)
{
videoKind = WScript.Arguments(1);
}

if(WScript.Arguments.length > 2)
{
show = WScript.Arguments(2);
}

if(WScript.Arguments.length > 3)
{
title = WScript.Arguments(3);
}

if(WScript.Arguments.length > 4)
{
epid = WScript.Arguments(4);
if (title==”") {title=epid;}
} //fix for null mediacenter episode titles, use AirDateTime

WScript.Echo (”Before collection search”, show, videoKind, title);

var colItems = mainLibrary.Search(show, 0);

if (file)
{
enumItems = new Enumerator(colItems);

for (; !enumItems.atEnd(); enumItems.moveNext())
{
var objItem = enumItems.item();
WScript.Echo (”For Loop”);
WScript.Echo (objItem.name, ‘****’, title);
WScript.Echo (objItem.show, show);

if (title = (objItem.name))
{
WScript.Echo (”Matching show already in Library - don’t Add it”);
}
else
{
WScript.Echo (”Add to Library”);

var opStatus = mainLibrary.AddFile(file);
while (opStatus.InProgress){} //wait until done
track = opStatus.Tracks.Item(1); //quick and dirty
if (videoKind)
{
track.videoKind=videoKind;
}
if (show)
{
track.Show=show;
}
if (title)
{
track.Name=title;
}
if (epid)
{
track.episodeid=epid;
}

}
}
}
