Hi,

Happy New Year everybody!!

I'm trying to create a script for the BIG FINISH site (audio books) and have some questions:
1. How to import data for the Person list?
I saw in one script the following code:
#CHARACTERS#
...
#TAKEPERSON#=#xx#=#yy#
#ENDCHARACTERS#
I tried to do it the same way but it doesn't work for me.

2. How to import Book Title and Original Title data?

#BOOKTITLE#
...
#TAKETITLE#=#xx#
#TAKEORIGINALTITLE#=#yy#
#ENDBOOKTITLE#

The above code doesn't work for me.

3. The following simple script block doesn't work for me too:
#LANGUAGE#
#PUT#=English#20#
#TAKELANGUAGE#=#20# #ONERROR#=*OK*
#ENDLANGUAGE#
Simular situation is with Original Country and Original Publisher.
But Original Language I can import, using almost the same code:
#ORIGINALLANGUAGE#
#PUT#=English#20#
#TAKEORIGINALLANGUAGE#=#20# #ONERROR#=*OK*
#ENDORIGINALLANGUAGE#


When I'm saying "doesn't work for me" I mean that in the debug mode in the Script Editor the variables I'm using in the #TAKExxx# functions always have a proper value, but I got nothing
when I update book using my script.

Please do not think that nothing at all works for me: book list is created and some metadata for the selected book (ISBN, Authors, Publisher, Format, Series, Volume, Issue, Release Year, Genre, Country, Plot, Cover) is imported.

I use XBM v.1.0.3.8 which I downloaded a few days ago.
Windows 7 Utimate SP1 64-bit

Thanks in advance for the help,
DiMoon.

Hi,

I found the problem with #TAKEPERSON# - it was my own mistake. Other questions are still valid.


Regards,
DiMoon.
