Smart playlists to the rescue.
I have a script in my iTunes menu which will allow me to quickly add keywords to any song or selection of songs.
tell application "iTunes"
set theAddedCommentList to {"Rock", "Pop", "Folk", "Metal", "Punk", "Kitsch", "Comedic", "Guitar", "Piano", "Instrumental", "Upbeat", "RESET"}
set these_tracks to the selection of browser window 1
if these_tracks is {} then
set this_track to current track
set these_tracks to these_tracks & {this_track}
end if
set theComment to (choose from list theAddedCommentList with prompt ("Select a keyword to add. Current filters: "))
repeat with the_track in these_tracks
if theComment is not false then
set newcomment to (comment of the_track) & " " & theComment
else
set newcomment to (comment of the_track)
end if
if theComment is "RESET" then
set newcomment to ""
end if
set (comment of the_track) to newcomment
end repeat
end tell
The script is fairly unrefined as I'm not sure the rest command works. You should also check out this posting over at codepoetry which has a nice idea for organising your music. ---
Smart playlists to the rescue.
Excellent. I recently switched from normal to smart Playlists and had to edit each song by hand. This Script is a great improvement for this. |
