The Script - Discography (2008-2
Other reviews are average or mixed: Chase Hoffberger of The Austin Chronicle gave the album three stars out of five and said, "It's Wayne's personality that both floats and sinks TCIII."[61] Kilian Murphy of Hot Press also gave it a score of three out of five and stated, "Gifted MC loses the run of himself without Mannie Fresh."[62] Lewis P. of Sputnikmusic likewise gave it a score of three out of five and said the album "is scattershot, which oddly strengthens its faults, as if any lull in quality means that the next batch of producers can just reset the formula."[63] (However, nearly three years later, in 2011, Alex Robertson of the same website gave the album a score of four-and-a-half out of five and said it was "sort of a miracle: it's way too weird and confusing to be on the mainstream rap charts--to be that record that everyone knows about--but it is anyway. This album was in opposition to much of modern rap but somehow became popular and then proceeded to completely consume the genre and change its direction. [...] Tha Carter III is a contradictory, against-all-odds masterpiece, and Lil Wayne may never perfect this balance again. I sincerely question: will anyone?"[64]) Ajitpaul Manjat of Tiny Mix Tapes gave the album two-and-a-half stars out of five and stated that, "equipped with the stylish, but too-often substance-less Tha Carter III, Lil Wayne seems poised to flip the script on the "rapper racists" (radio stations, MTV) by evolving into the "biggest" rapper alive."[65]
The Script - Discography (2008-2
There is now an actively managed fork by @araxhiel hosted on Github: GitHub antonio-gil/Mp3Tag_WS_MetalArchivesMP3Tag scripts for pulling data from Metal Archives - antonio-gil/Mp3Tag_WS_MetalArchives
Would it be eventually possible to modify the script that you also could enter the album number of the album you want to tag instead of using the lame Metal-Archives search engine? Would be very useful for tagging hole Bands, you just have to go to the Artist page
Thank you for your script Dano, it's very useful when I'm trying to tag metal albums that Discogs.com doesn't have. However, when I'm trying to tag a split album, there's an annoying problem. In the title column it shows both the artist's name and the title of the song. Can I get the script to tag it properly or is it a Metal Archives problem? I don't like having to manually erase and enter the information myself. Here is a example of what I'm talking about. Thanks in advance.Mp3tag_Metal_Archives.png12801024 142 KB
dano: maybe I'll never be thankful enough with you for this so useful and amazing web source script... but, even when I'm not so clever to made a script like this, I've come with some doubts about how it works, according to my obsesive-compulsive method to organize the music:
i am trying to write a web source for MusicBrainz XML lookup based on your album lookup, but i don't get it to work.i get an error that there is no connection to the url musicbrainz.org.don't know how i have to skip the search part and only run the album part of the script
Any idea why the character encoding sometimes doesn't work as it should when fetching data with this script? It seems to be totally random if the encoding works or if the special characters are messed up. So far I've been able to get correct data by trying a few times, but I wonder if the problem is in the script or at MB's end.
This problem has occured before but nobody could find the reason.The script cannot influence this, it could be Musicbraniz server or Mp3tag. It happens not very often, it's hard to find the problem.Maybe you can give a few search terms that caused the problem.
If you want to modify this script to search for other parameters, go to and scroll down to the "release resources" section. Copy which parameter you want to use, then open up the .src file you want to modify, and the only part you need to change is the "[IndexUrl]" line, at the end, immediately before the "=%s" part. Change that to whatever you want to search for. For example, when searching by album name, the line used to be:[IndexUrl]= =xml&limit=20&title=%s
Carey has always been the mistress of pretty pining, but she knew how to flip the script when her Mimi-ness went unappreciated. Here, she lets an ex foolish enough to walk away know just what he'll be missing. You think you'll find better, boy? No such thing.
AppleScript has always launched applications if it needed to in order to send them a command. However, they would always launch visibly, which could be visually disruptive. AppleScript now launches applications hidden by default. They will not be visible unless the script explicitly says otherwise using activate.
When opening a script for editing, AppleScript will attempt to locate all the referenced applications in the entire script, which may mean asking where one is. Pressing the Cancel button only cancels the search for that application; the script will continue opening normally, though custom terminology for that application will display as raw codes. In older versions, pressing Cancel would cancel opening the script.
AppleScript supplies the Boolean constants true and false to serve as the result of evaluating a Boolean operation. But scripts rarely need to use these literals explicitly because a Boolean expression itself evaluates to a Boolean value. For example, consider the following two script snippets:
Constants are generally used for enumerated types. You cannot define constants in scripts; constants can be defined only by applications and by AppleScript. See Global Constants in AppleScript for more information.
One place you use constants defined by AppleScript is in text comparisons performed with considering or ignoring statements (described in considering / ignoring (text comparison)). For example, in the following script statements, punctuation, hyphens, and white space are constants:
Note: The smallest possible integer value is actually -536870912 (-2^29), but it can only be generated as a result of an expression. If you enter it directly into a script, it will be converted to a real when you compile.
For large lists, it is more efficient to use the a reference to operator when inserting a large number of items into a list, rather than to access the list directly. For example, using direct access, the following script takes about 10 seconds to create a list of 10,000 integers (results will vary depending on the computer and other factors):
Real numbers that are greater than or equal to 10,000.0 or less than or equal to 0.0001 are converted to exponential notation when scripts are compiled. The largest value that can be evaluated (positive or negative) is 1.797693e+308.
A record appears in a script as a series of property definitions contained within braces and separated by commas. Each property definition consists of a label, a colon, and the value of the property. For example, this is a record with two properties: product:"pen", price:2.34.
Because all text is Unicode text, scripts now always get the Unicode text behavior. This may be different from the former string behavior for some locale-dependent operations, in particular word elements. To get the same behavior with 2.0 and pre-2.0, add an explicit as Unicode text coercion, for example, words of (someText as Unicode text).
Because AppleScript 2.0 scripts store all text as Unicode, any text constants count as a use of the former Unicode text class, which will work with any version of AppleScript back to version 1.3. A script that contains Unicode-only characters such as Arabic or Thai will run, but will not be correctly editable using versions prior to AppleScript 2.0: the Unicode-only characters will be lost.
Creating Playlists Using iTunesI have created an applescript that works with iTunes that will allow you to transfer your iTunes playlist songs and then writes an M3U file that can be used on the Sansa Clip under its Music Playlist menu. The script does not convert files in a playlist that are not in a format supported by the Clip, but it will notify the user if any such songs are found. The script has been tested under Tiger, but will likely work for other versions of OS X.
I am using OSX 10.4.11 on a G4 with iTunes 7.6 and the music downloads are mostly mp4. The clip is new and has been upgraded to the latest firmware. Your script copied my playlist as mp4 and did not convert it to mp3. I can see everything while on the computer (as mp4) but nothing shows in the playlist of the clip after unplugging. It appears the Clip does not play mp4. Any thoughts?
I hope to get to these revisions within the next four days (from Mar 31). I will post an update notice on this forum when they have been implemented. I may change my thinking on this once I have the time to investigate it more; I can certainly see why this (the script not doing conversions) may not be a very satsifying solution.
Wow, I was hooked. Until I realized that the script would become the property of Overthinking it site. Seriously, dude. Why did the writers just go on strike?This comment brought to you by the society to retain copyright at all costs.
