Exporting List of titles

**joe33067** · 06-19-2017, 10:23 AM

Is it possible to create a CSV file from a view (or playlist) ?

You can export files to a playlist from the file menu http://www.mezzmo.com/wiki/doku.php?id=export_playlist&s[]=export

Hey Peter - I actually tried that, to see what it would look like. It actually crashed Mezzmo.

I didn't actually want to export a playlist, per se', I wanted to generate a list of all titles in a format that I could use to import into Excel, like a CSV format.

The Mezzmo database is sqlite so possibly you could try an excel to sqlite bridge such as https://github.com/govert/SQLiteForExcel, have not tried this so I'm not sure if it will work. You can also use an sqlite program like sqliteSpy to browse the table and export data.

Thx Peter. I'll investigate those options.

I will second this Peter. Exporting the playlists now crashes Mezzmo consistently (every time).

I tried it here and could not reproduce the crash, can you please send the crash report to support [at] conceiva [dot] com so we can investigate?

Thanks, the crash report shows that the crash is occurring when loading the title of one of the files. Can you please try exporting the playlist of just one file to see if the crash occurs then if this does not crash try exporting more files until you find which file is causing the crash.

It does this with two different playlists with two different sets of criteria. One of the playlists is for movies that are less than 720p (standard def) and one that is 720p or larger, but less than 1080p (720p high def). These two playlists do not share files.
