Nice Simple one - Tracklist Compiler

I find it a bit of a pain to make a note of each tune I've played during a mix, usually if your recording at home you'll be needing to make a tracklist. A feature to output the titles and artistnames selected tracks to a txt file or html file would be handy.

Review function. Just take a screenshot of that.

Rev, a screenshot wouldnt help if you need it as a text file.

jonnyboy, check scratchlive.net :

Just scan that baby in and use an OCR program :)

I guess.

That wont work with longer track lists where you have to scroll down... or do you suggest now to snapshot each screen separately and OCR' it etc one by one? :-P

It shouldnt be too hard for some of you java geeks to write an app which extracts from the unicode crate files the proper filenames.

i agree. tracklist text files are a must...
nik39 11:23 PM - 24 November, 2004
For those mac users (and linux users...), you can use following one line to extract the path and filenames of a crate (which could be the copied review track list):
cat crate_name.slc | tr -d "\0" | grep "[file]" | sed "s#\[file\]##g"

You have to be in the ".ScratchLIVE" path....
