Need help with my first Automator Script

tilt

Hi,



I am trying to change info on my iTunes songs. I have songs from various albums. What I want to do is as follows:



Sort the songs by Album;

Select all songs belongong to first album in the list;

Change info for all selected songs (The info to be changed is to mark "Part of a compilation" as Yes)

Select all songs belonging to the net album in the list;

Rinse and repeat till end of list.



The reason I am trying to do this is because apparently iTunes 7 sometimes does not download album art unless the album is marked as a compilation.



One question: What if I just select all the songs in one shot and change all "Part of a compilation" to Yes? Would it then consider all my songs to be part of the same compliation album or is iTunes intelligent enough to distinguish by album name?



Thanks and cheers

mr. h

Indeed. No need for the script, just do that.



For future reference, lot of iTunes AppleScripts can be found at Doug's AppleScripts
