Genre Tagging Shortcuts

[Santos10]

Yea after I kept searching I found a script similar and took-out the unnecessary and thats how I got this script.... but I keep using it now

[Kupujte_Pytle]

is it somehow doable on PC (even on itunes)?

[Santos10]

you can try googling... but this is what i found

""A collection of Windows scripting examples that can be used to sort your iTunes music library.
They are in .vbs (visual basic script) or .js (javascript) format, and rely on the Windows Script Host (WSH) to run. It’s more than likely that you unknowingly already have this installed on your computer. It’s the equivalent of Applescript on a Mac""

& try browsing this link: http://dougscripts.com/itunes/itinfo/windowshelp.php

On Windows a combination of Autohotkey and vbscript will do the job.

Your vbscript will probably look something like this:

set objApp = CreateObject("iTunes.Application")
objApp.CurrentTrack.Genre = "mygenre"

Create a script for each genre, configure Autohotkey to run the script for a particular keystroke when using itunes...

Or you could just you smart playlists

[Santos10]

@Love Bass smart playlists wouldnt work its so you can change the genre of the song faster using hotkeys and not opening the info tab and typing in the genre there
