Hi dano,

So, this script does actually not add a lot of new tag in the over all fantastic collection of scripts you have made. I have a few suggestions to make this more useful. First of all I think the info that goes into GENRES should go into STYLES instead since they are almost always more than one...

In the existing scripts you can find what language the songs are in and where albums are released, but, as far as I know, not where the band/artist is from. Don't know if it's even possible but the tags I would like to see this script grab are of that kind and from the ARTIST page of the album...

ALSO KNOWN AS
BORN
CURRENTLY
FORMED
MEMBERS
MEMBER OF

What do you think, is this useful for anyone else than me? I run theme nights with songs from artists from only one country or region (like Sweden) and I would love to have this info in my collection of songs...

Regards,

Hi Dano,

This one isn't working anymore, right? Anyway I can't get it to work on any of my resent searches like for instance Santogold

I've fixed it.

Hi again Dano,

Thanks for the last fix, now that works, but the script still doesn't grab the cover.

Thanks for your work!

I've fixed it.

Cover works for me.

Cover works for me.

Hi, thanks for the script, it works perfectly.

But I would like to download only primary genres (and not the secondaries). I tried to edit it myself (I didn't knew anything about this scripting language), I understood the basics of it, but I couldn't find a way to only import primary genres.

What should I change here?

# Genre / Style
outputto "CONTENTGROUP"
findline "\"genrelist_"
findinline "\"genrelist_"
sayregexp "(?<=/\">)[^<]+(?=</a)" ", "

Thanks a lot.

[dano]

Replace the last line of that code with
sayregexp "(?<=/\">)[^<]+" ", " "</a"

[pdr]

Replace the last line of that code with
sayregexp "(?<=/\">)[^<]+" ", " "</a"

Thanks a lot! That didn't do what I wanted but it made me understand how I should edit it!

For example, this album:

http://rateyourmusic.com/release/album/asi...s_and_fictions/

Has as genres:

Genres Breakbeat, UK Hip Hop, Dub
World Music, Ragga, Dub, Alternative Rock, Drum and Bass, Alternative Dance

But the 2nd list is just a list of "Secondary genres include influences and undertones that are less predominant, or not representative of the album as a whole. "

So i want to filter out those and only import the first 3: Breakbeat, UK Hip Hop, Dub.

But as I said your post helped me a lot, I edited it as this and I thnk it's working:

"sayregexp "(?<=/\">)[^<]+" ", " "genrelist_s" "

Thanks again. Your script will save me a lot of work! Because of it now I'm an user of MP3Tag .
