harry potter and the deathly hallows audiobook tracklist

You plan to pull out all the stops, but every time you solve one mystery, three more evolve. The script made short work of an otherwise long and tedious process, and now I have tracks that can be distinguished at a glance.It all comes down to this - a final faceoff between good and evil.

The third argument limits the replacement to the first “Chapter” found in the title.)

(Why does Line 9 use a third argument of 1 in the replace method? That’s a bit of defensive programming I thought of after changing the Deathly Hallows track titles. I then made the obvious edits and ran it on all the other Potter books and on the Dylan book, too. I selected all the Deathly Hallows tracks and ran the script to apply the changes. Here it is: python:ĥ: selected = appscript.app('iTunes').selection.get()ĩ: newname = oldname.replace('Chapter', 'HP7 - Ch', 1) So I wrote the script in Python using the appscript library. I suppose I could have written it in AppleScript, but in my mind “AppleScript” and “search and replace” are phrases that aren’t tres bien ensemble. What I needed was a set of track names that had both the book name and the chapter/track info in the first several characters. Because these books were ripped from CDs, there are several tracks for each chapter, and they have names like “Chapter 01A - The Dark Lord Ascending.” 1 On the nano’s small screen, the “Chapter 01A” part takes up most of the width, making it harder than it should be to distinguish between the two books. The nano puts all the book tracks together in the Audiobook category. In fact, the track titles as they appear in iTunes don’t even show up on the iPhone.īut it’s a different story on the nano. Having two books on the iPhone is no big deal, as its user interface does a good job in keeping them separate. You see, I’m still working my way through Sean Wilentz’s Dylan book and the track titles of the two books have enough similarities to be confusing. When the syncing was done and I looked at both devices to make sure everything had worked, I realized I needed to make some changes to the track titles. I decided to relisten to the audiobook of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, so I did the usual iTunesy stuff and synced the first few chapters to both my iPhone and my old second-generation iPod nano.
