[Not my release] Biography view Reply #326 – 2010-07-02 20:13:46 screenshot on post #318 is clear I think. You only need to add "run external source" as first source in biography preferencesyou can run it from command prompt also by calling the script with python and adding two arguments: artist and album, so that it will print to stdout
[Not my release] Biography view Reply #327 – 2010-07-03 02:20:02 Much thanks 2E7AH for the AMG review script! Working flawlessly.
[Not my release] Biography view Reply #328 – 2010-07-03 03:21:09 First, thanks for the great work. Quote from: 2E7AH on 2010-06-28 11:10:52scripts aren't executed withing same album, thou artist scripts are executed on album change even if artist is sameThis is the intended behaviour. The current version checks only whether the command line is the same.

Thanks.Something like..."D:\python\python.exe" "scripts\amg_artist.py" "%album artist%" "%album%"...but change the path to python.exe to wherever it is on your computer. Note I found that in windows 7 it wouldn't find "C:\Program Files (x86)\Python\python.exe". Even with the quotes it stopped at the open bracket. Weird.
[Not my release] Biography view Reply #332 – 2010-07-09 09:08:52 Thank you for your reply Ledge, I'll to try immediately.

Weird.You'll have to take care or parentheses as they are special characters for foobar (discussed many times)@joelzhao: Are you saying that imageshack service isn't available in China? I'll reupload elsewhere if that the problem
[Not my release] Biography view Reply #334 – 2010-07-18 16:13:47 i like the plugins very much. Because i have a lot of classic music, i want to have an composer view and a band view like the biography view. Also in a separate panel.so my questions: is it easy for you to make them also as a component like the biography view (then i think, i make an extra panel and it will function)orwhere in the component are the "words" to be changendThanks for every answermichael

I've done everything like your screenshot, but... nope, nothing appears.Maybe because of my portable installation? Python and Foobar are not in the same Drive.
[Not my release] Biography view Reply #336 – 2010-07-22 16:48:42 I'm grateful to 2E7AH. He took care of my problem by PM and point me the problem i've got.For those who might have the same problem:Python 3.1 doesn't work for this use.Use ActivePython 2.6.X instead.@2E7AH, I've already told you by PM, but twice is better than never : Thanks mate.
[Not my release] Biography view Reply #337 – 2010-08-03 22:14:21 Is there some way to extract automatically the artist image from last.fm to the artist folder on the pc?
[Not my release] Biography view Reply #338 – 2010-08-04 01:43:08 have a look at the "server" preferences. i believe you can specify the location where it caches files using title formatting. Last Edit: 2010-08-04 01:44:00 by marc2003

[Not my release] Biography view Reply #340 – 2010-08-04 18:48:33 2E7AH, is it possible for the AMG review script to look up albums using the 'artist' tag instead of 'album artist'? I tried editing the command line but that doesn't help. Thanks.
[Not my release] Biography view Reply #341 – 2010-08-07 05:48:17 There is some idea.1. Support Multiple Value in Run Enternal ScriptI use following command.cmd /c manualinfo.bat "%artist%"But this work only $meta(artist,0).I set "%<artist>%" to remap meta.2. Blacklist image functionSome time, bad image(e.g. too small, not relation etc.) downloaded.Please limit image downloading by filesize, imagesize, blacklist.3. Up max download image count(20-30?) or accumulation chache support.4. Support Multiple Value in "Get Artist Picture from Last.fm" menu.5. Load Image from custom folder.Core built-in artreader not support multiple value.Thank you. Last Edit: 2010-08-07 06:04:10 by watercolor

[Not my release] Biography view Reply #343 – 2010-08-14 20:34:02 I'd like to raise the limit for server pictures from 6 to 100 or even more. Is that possible? Please, more pictures! 6 is not enough. It's so great to have a slideshow from pictures you haven't seen before.And it would be great if there's an option to left- or right-align the pictures. Maybe customizable anchors for all 8 directions. (Top, Top-right etc.). Last Edit: 2010-08-14 20:35:55 by durch
[Not my release] Biography view Reply #344 – 2010-08-14 22:35:27 I noticed that you can't align both text and pictures perfectly. In my example, both text and pictures have borders and the same "y" padding: top bottom The top align is perfect, but the bottom align has a difference of 1 pixel. I tested with several different images, so I don't believe it has something to do with the test images.

[Not my release] Biography view Reply #346 – 2010-08-15 14:56:57 Question:In Biography view's options, I found a "Remap meta" field for "Artist" that containsCode: [Select][%<artist>%]What is that supposed to do? I never saw title formatting like this and didn't find any hint in the official title formatting reference. I am tempted to replace it with $meta(artist,0). Is there a difference?

[Not my release] Biography view Reply #348 – 2010-08-15 15:21:52 So does it search for artist A first, and if nothing is found for that artist A then it searches for artist B?
