UPDATED: Convert and Replace v3.1
For macOS 10.15 Catalina and later only. This script will convert the files of the selected tracks using an encoder chosen on-the-fly (each encoder's current Preferences-set options will be in effect) and replace each original track's file with the converted version.

UPDATED: Track's Album to Playlist v4.0
For macOS 10.15 Catalina or later only. This script gathers the tracks in the Music library with the same Artist, Album, and Disc Number of the currently playing track (or, if no track is playing, the selected track) and copies them in track number order to a new Playlist named "Artist - Album". Accurate track-tagging is a must.
This works great when assigned a shortcut.

UPDATED: Convert and Export v5.0
For macOS 10.15 Catalina and later only. This script converts the files of the selected tracks in the Music app using an encoder chosen on-the-fly (restoring your Preferences-set encoder afterwards). The newly converted files are then moved to a new location of your choice, and their tracks removed from Music. The read me doc contains additional important information.
Also see M3Unify, an application that provides many more options for converting/exporting files from Music or iTunes, including customizable file re-naming, sub-folder mods, artwork export and more.

UPDATED: Re-Locate Selected v2.1
For macOS 10.15 Catalina and later only. This script will re-locate the files of the selected tracks from their current location to a single user-chosen folder. The Music app (or TV app) will be updated with each track's new location and all of each track's meta-data will be preserved. Optionally remove the files from their original location.
NOTE: If your "Keep Media folder organized" preference is set, you will not be able to create new folders or re-locate files in the Media folder; outside of it is OK.
Latest version:
- Adds support for the TV app
- Minor adjustments and fixes

UPDATED: Tracks Without Embedded Artwork v2.0
For macOS 10.15 Catalina and later only. MP3, AAC and ALAC audio files have the capability to store artwork image data internally as metadata, thus allowing artwork to "travel" with a file. This applet will examine the files of the selected tracks (or tracks in the selected playlist) for artwork metadata. Eligible audio tracks whose files are capable of embedding image data but do not contain artwork metadata will be copied to a new discrete playlist.
Note: Music-assigned artwork may not necessarily be embedded as metadata; pre-ID3v2 MP3s do not store image data; this applet ignores how the Finder may or may not display an audio file's icon image.
Also see Is Artwork Embedded.
To embed artwork to tracks' files try Re-Embed Artwork or Re-Apply Downsized Artwork.
Latest version:
- Accommodations for macOS 10.15 Catalina and the Music app
- Performance and security enhancements

UPDATED: Is Artwork Embedded v2.0
For macOS 10.15 and later only. This script will examine the metadata of the audio file of a single selected track for image information and will report if such embedded artwork does or does not exist.
For faster access and activation, assign this script a keyboard shortcut.

UPDATED: Export Playlist As Text v4.0
