Find Currently Playing Track (MediaMonkey Add-on)

Find Currently Playing Track
- MediaMonkey Add-on -
Version 1.1.3

by Zvezdan Dimitrijevic

This add-on could be used with MediaMonkey v2.x or higher. It allows finding and displaying of folder that contains the currently playing track within the Library\Location node or within the My Computer node. This add-on works similarly as the built-in Find More from Same\Folder (Library/My Computer) MM option, but you don't need to right-click on the currently playing tracks to be able to choose that option and such track would be located automatically whenever the program starts to play another track. After the containing folder is located, the currently playing track will be selected in the main tracklist and it will get the keyboard focus if you have the program v3.1.0.1218 or higher.

For a discussion about this add-on, you could visit the related MediaMonkey forum thread.

Installation:

For MediaMonkey 3.0 or higher - just double-click on the FindCurrentPlayingTrack-xx.mmip file; if you are on Vista or Win7 and you got "Product installation error", make sure you have MM3 set to "Run as Administrator"; if you downloaded the installation package with IE7 and it changed its extension to a .zip, you should first change it back to a .mmip.
For MediaMonkey 2.x - rename a .mmip extension to a .zip, extract the FindCurrentPlayingTrack.vbs file to the MediaMonkey's "Scripts\Auto" folder and restart MM program.

Usage:

Add-on settings are in the Tools / Options dialog box within the Find Currently Playing Track tab: you could turn on/off execution of this add-on and you could choose if you want to locate folder with the currently playing track within the Library\Location node or within the My Computer node, or if you want just to select track in the currently displayed tracklist. You could also toggle execution of this add-on using the button on the Shortcuts toolbar.

Limitations:

Selecting of the track in the main tracklist works only with the program v3.1.0.1218 or higher.

Finding of tracks in the My Computer folder is not possible with the network drives (although Network works fine within the Library\Location folder); actually, even the built-in Find More from Same\Folder (My Computer) MM option doesn't work with the network drives.
