Hi Jack,
Looking at line 778 in that script it reads:
Library=iTunes.LibraryXMLPath
and is part of a routine that tries to determine where your media files are currently stored. I guess this may cause an error if iTunes isn't actively generating an XML file. It used to by default but that is clearly no longer the case.
For a quick workaround use Edit > Preferences > Advanced and tick Share iTunes Library XML with other applications, which should create the XML, and make that request valid.
I'm somewhat busy today but it looks like I need to revisit every script that uses that module and trap that error. Fun times.
