Title: mediafiles.jmd
Post by: sufokeet on September 21, 2004, 01:48:12 pm

I have a Access database containing all the tag info. Is there a way to create a mediafiles.jmd, instead of having to copy and paste all the the from the database to MC?

You'll have to build an MPL playlist and import it.

Export some files as MPL from MC's File > Export Playlist menu, and you'll see how it works. (it's straightforward XML)

Hi Matt,

Thanks for your reply.
I can export a playlist as a HTML, MPL, M3U or ASCII Delimited file.
I exported it as a MPL file. I added it as a library. But when I load the lib no files are loaded.
I changed the extension to XML. The same result.

Regards,

John

MPL is a playlist you can import to a library. (instead of a library)

Drop the MPL file on MC to import it.
