Track name send to file

Hi Bernd,
Can I export to the txt file tracks from specific library only - for example Music?

The point is - not export the names of jingles, liners, etc.

Thank you.

Petr

Yes.
Go to the general settings, section 'Folder' and click on the 'Export Media Libraries...' button.
You can now select one or multiple media libraries to export and in the subsequent dialog you can also exclude certain media types.
Specify the "CSV" or "M3U" as your format to write to a text file.

When you select "CSV" you can also specify an export format.
The export formats are defined in the file "ProppFrexx.exportformats" contained in your ProppFrexx installation folder.

I had in mind export current playing track to txt for export to the web, rds, etc. Propp send current track from all libraries to the file. Web or RDS is then displayed the names of jingles , commercials...
This is undesirable.

I know all this.
I would like to only show the names of music library. Not jingles, commercials, liners, etc.
It's somehow filter?

Ahhh, updating a web site or RDS system is a totally different task, I wouldn't have guessed that from your initial post ;-)

Here are some links on how to send your now playing tracks to your web or text file (as there are several ways to do so):

Use the Streaming.OnSongTitleChanged event and set the Filter accordingly in the general settings.

Or when using the "EXEC_WRITE_PLAYLISTFILE" commad you can set the exclude filter in the general settings, section 'Logging/History' for the "History Playlist" - as the command is using that to generate the template file.
