Hi @steeled3,

your problem with the redirects should be an easy fix:

> **[lukeIam/Audible.de-Search-by-Album](https://github.com/lukeIam/Audible.de-Search-by-Album/tree/nonGermanIp)**
>
> Mp3tag Web Sources Scripts. Contribute to lukeIam/Audible.de-Search-by-Album development by creating an account on GitHub.

  
This version should be able use [audible.de](http://audible.de) without a vpn.

And yes only a single book at time - scripting in MP3Tag is not powerful enough to automate that (as far as I know)

Thanks - have installed and verified the new version of the script, @lukeiam. Appreciate it!

And @Romano, not sure where you are, but I'm going to assume that Audible has tight restrictions selling into Australia and wants to redirect customers to the AU site whenever possible whereas other geos may be fine? Guessing...

Looks like Audible changed how they handled the ASIN value, I updated the script to point it at the new location and it seems to be working now.

Great work, however minor bug is when Artist and Narrator are same it adds twice the same name to Artist field separated by coma.

This happens whenever the Author and Narrator are the same person. For the Artist tag I simply combine them: %artist% = %albumartist%, %composer%

Because of programming limitations I am unable to use regex to remove duplicate entries in the artist field within the src script.

I actually tag using two steps, first using the src script to scrape and tag, second using an action script to rename the files and move to the right directory and export the cover to the folder. You can easily duplicate my action script and have another option for books that are read by the author and add an additional action that rewrites the artist tag = author, example below.

I actually don't like this feature, i'd love to disable this merging, but cannot find what line inside source code is responsible for it.

For me i want to have separate filelds, author into Artist column narrator into Albumartist column, if i need to merge them its very simple to do using mp3tag's "Tag - Tag" (Alt+5) feature.

**Edit:** Just noticed you save narrator separately inside "Composer" tag and author saved inside "Album Artist" tag so i can quickly use "Tag-Tag" (Alt+5) to copy "Album Artist" tag to "Artist" tag without need to modify source code.

</div>

Line 163 Sets the Author to AlbumArtist  
Line 174 Sets the narrator to Composer  
Lines 324-327 Copies the Albumartist + Composer

What player are you using that uses those tags like you're describing? Every major player I know expects the composer = narrator. The AlbumArtist is the author of the whole book. And most players that I know of treat the Artist tag as "Artists on this track" which is a per track field. If track 1 is a forward by another author then the artist tag for that track will be different, however the albumartist would be the author or the whole book.

I'm not saying the way you want it doesn't make sense, just that I don't know of any players that use that.

JustAHappyUser is in AU and it was forcing a redirect to .com.au . They resolved the issue by editing the host file to force .com. I also modified an additional src script to use .com.au instead, can be found [here](https://github.com/seanap/Plex-Audiobook-Guide/blob/master/mp3tag/data/sources/Audible.com.au%23Search%20by%20Album.src)

I'm chagrinned to admit how long I searched for the folder for dano's invention only to realize it's for Windows only. Now I'm checking to make sure there's no way we mere Mac mortals can use it?

Can you give the detailed tag source name (there are several in the linked repository) and the query string that produces the issue?

I've tried with **[Audible.com](http://Audible.com) → Search by Album** using `R. A. Savlatore The Legend of Drizzt` and get lots of results:
