UPDATED: Coverscope v2.6

This applet will show both the assigned track artwork and the local file's metadata artwork (if any exists) for the selected track. The Track entry artwork well supports copy, paste and drags. Pasting or dragging image data immediately applies the image to the selected track's artwork and attempts to embed it. Additional tools can Embed or Apply artwork between track and file.

Free to use in Demo Mode: While in Demo Mode, these functions will be enabled to use in any combination up to five times per launch:

  • Embed Track Artwork (to the file)
  • Apply Metadata Artwork (to the track entry)
  • Paste or Drag an image file to Apply and Embed
  • Copy Track Artwork to Clipboard
  • Save Track Artwork to File

Latest version:

  • Maintenance and minor performance fixes
  • Accommodations for macOS 13 Ventura

    NEW: Remove Duplicate Tracks from Playlist v2.0

    Tracks may have been dragged/added/copied to a user playlist two or more times and now each of them appears multiple times in the playlist. This script will remove all but one of these kind of duplicate tracks from a selected playlist. (This does not have anything to do with duplicate media files that each have an individual track entry in the Music library.)

    Latest version:

    • Initial re-release as a script for the Music app

    UPDATED: Needle Drop v7.6

    This applet plays each track in the selected Music playlist for a set time interval optionally starting at a set number of seconds into each track, beginning with the selected track. Handy for 'scoping playlists.
