Hi Dan, either of these 2 scripts will help.

The first is the work of Charlie and is where I cribbed the coding from in the second link.

With my script (which only adds a colour to the playlist) you need 2 versions one for each colour or add a new line into the script and comment one option out with //.

Load all the jingles into a playlist and then click open/run script, find the script and run. Repeat with music tracks selecting a different colour. Works a treat.

The offering from charlie is much more versatile as all the coding ia already to colour code all audio. It will also let you specify an icon that will appear in the playlist too. So as an example jingles could have a green background and also a red music symbol.

Again load a playlist with all jingles and run the script after removing the // before the colour you wish to set. repeat with the music tracks.

Kind regards Tony
