convert command ignoring reference list in iTunes 7.0


  • Subject: convert command ignoring reference list in iTunes 7.0

I just upgraded my iTunes to 7.0 and now a script that used the convert command to import individual tracks off a CD now causes iTunes to import the entire CD. The convert command fails with a timeout error.

Here's a sample script that demonstrates the problem:

tell application "iTunes"
	set audioCDSource to (first source whose kind is audio CD)
	set secondTrack to track 2 of playlist 1 of audioCDSource
	set thirdTrack to track 3 of playlist 1 of audioCDSource
	set importedTracks to convert {secondTrack, thirdTrack}
end tell

Load a CD and after iTune recognizes the CD, run the script. The script should just import tracks 2 & 3 (which it does with iTunes 6.0) but with 7.0 it loads all tracks starting with track 1.

I was getting ready to launch a product with this script in the next month but this bug will cause me major headaches. I logged a bug using Bug Reporter.

Anyone have any suggested workarounds or approaches to take? Any guesses on how long a bug like this might take to get fixed or addressed? DTS tells me they don't support AppleScript.

Thanks!

						Don
