Hi Dano! Hi MP3Tag users! Now i am new here. I use MP3Tag since last week. Its a very nice program, and easy to use!!! While tagged a few mp3 files, i missed a function to automate clicks, because its very usefull if somebody have a large number of mp3-files as me. So i have written a little script with Autoit, to make the most clicks automatic. For better understand watch the video! **[![](http://666kb.com/i/bn644u151bv3p25ss.png)](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fC2Xkfq8Mj8)** **[here is a little videosample to view (sorry for bad quality, but it is sufficient to see how the script works)](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fC2Xkfq8Mj8)** **DESCRIPTION\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*** I have tested my automation script only with the dialog "Discogs Web Service Direct Search by Artist and Title". But i think that you can use it with your standard dialog too. For the people who are interested in the changed dialog, i attached it. Download it and copy the attached src in your sources folder, for Windows Vista it found here C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Mp3tag\data\sources\ I have edited the source to get a smaller result list (filter the genre "Electronic" and only results after the year 1987, beacause thats i mostly search - you can change it as you want!! The results will be displayed in order of the year (from old to new) ``` [IndexUrl]=http://www.discogs.com/advanced_search?artist=%s&genre=Electronic&range=after&year1=1987&btn=Search+Releases&sort=year,asc ``` **HOW TO USE\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*** - now start the actual version **2.49 in german or in english language,** **- be shure that the right Discogs Search Source used one time before, so that MP3tag use it standardly when click the Quick-Search Symbol.** -now click on the MP3TagScript.exe **[b]You can STOP the script with "Esc"** thats all, and have fun with it. ![](http://www.smilies-and-more.de/pics/smilies/hands/075.gif) ![](http://www.smilies-and-more.de/pics/smilies/party/155.gif) **DOWNLOAD\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*** I dont know, why i cant attach rar-files in this forum!

This "batch tagging" with autoit and the scripts various people write is very usefull. Unfortunately i am not a programmer so i don't know what can or cannot be done. Is there a way to make a script or autoit program that could do the following: Per folder, or from a selection of songs (whatever is easyer, you can decide on the conditions) lookup the lyrics (for example the leoslyrics script) and import them per song. i don't know if it is possible that it catches only those where it is sure of the lyrics, and skip/disregard those where it doesn't find lyrics or where the window with the list of possibility's you manually choose from pops up. ---

Im having problems building this with autoit, I keep getting an error on line 27 "Error: Variable used without being declared". ---

Does your script what dano's script did or have you modified it? I don't understand what you are talking about the modified src file in your post (post 2)? There is no src in your rar and your exe works with every src, right? ---

There is no src in your rar and your exe works with every src, right? Sorry - i attached it seperatly again 😉 The difference to the original one is that the search result sort by year of publishing. But you can also try to run with your script 😉 ---
