Hi,

I have the following setup...

NAS with the iTunes Library.xml and files on it.
Desktop which I use to run iTunes from and sync with my i devices.
HTPC running WIN7 and XBMC

Both the desktop and HTPC are setup with the Music share on the NAS mapped as X.

The iTunes Library.xml uses the following as it's path...

key>Music Folder</key><string>file://localhost/X:/iTunes%20Music/</string>

Should I enter the following into the options for the plugin?

Old path: file://localhost/X:/
New path: X:/

Then the million dollar question...

How do I run the script!!!

Thanks in advance for any help.

the optional "old path" & "new path" are there if you want to change where music are.

if your songs are not located at "file://localhost/X:/iTunes%20Music/" you can change the location to the real path of your songs directory. (the script will search "old path" and will replace by "new path")

Hey just wanted to say this script works pretty well and is very useful. It works fine in Eden Beta 3 on Windows 7 the first time you run it. It does exactly what it says it will do. What I've found though is that you can't run it twice or it gets a script error. You have to restart XBMC to rerun it. I'm assuming the scheduled update won't work either due to this.

Not a big deal, but this looks like an old thread and wanted to see if you were still doing development on this. I love it and would love it even more if it would regularly pull down playlists. Thanks!

In case someone is interested in a temporary fix I ended up replacing all instances of os.getcwd() in addons.py with the actual working directory for the plugin.

Maybe someone could suggest an alternate function to os.getcwd() to return the current working directory rather than hardwiring the path in as I have done.

EDIT
The above method only works on OSX. Trying in Windows results in XBMC crashing.

Hi Dave,

whenever I launch the addon I get ERROR script failed addon.py - I am running xbmc 12.2 on mac osx 10.8.

would be nice to have this working.

cheers
