I'm using this script to get the list of iTunes playlists:

    tell application "iTunes"
        get name of playlists
    end tell

Unfortunately it returns also the names of the "standard" playlist (as "Library", "Music", Movies", TV Shows", "Podcasts", "iTunes U", "Audiobooks", "Purchased").

Is there a known way to remove this items from the list? I could do it with a replace command but I guess that it don't work in non-English localized systems.

Hi Mag,

Did you try?

Code: Select all

tell application "iTunes"
	get name of playlists whose special kind is none
end tell

Best,

Hi Mag,

I get a compiler error

The script is working here.

Could we check the result inside the applescript editor before to execute it with LC?

Open the Applescript script editor and copy paste the script, then run it by clicking the green button. What is the result?

Best Regards,

Oops, sorry, you're right. I inserted an error in the script, now I corrected it and your code works fine. Thank you!
