Generate an iTunes XML from your Swinsian (smart) playlists

ximian's Issues

Any way to get this to work with Traktor?

swinsian2itlxml by Matt Hite worked just fine with Traktor. Any way to get this program to do the same? :)

Rating export

Hello dear,
first I would like to thank for your project, its being incredibly useful for me. Do you have any experience and managing to export also the rating from tracks from Swinsian to Itunes? I seem to not manage to do that somehow...
Cheers!

Swinsian Smart Playlist variable not available in iTunes

Love what you've done here.

I'm getting an error for Swinsian smart playlists that clearly use fields that aren't available for iTunes playlists. Not sure what is the best approach here - possibly ignore that particular variable, but still port over the rest of the smart playlist variables, or just exclude that smart playlist all together and throw a user message. Perhaps an option?

Example:

Swinsian playlist attached.

Error received:

Ximian[4455:15654912] SQLiteDB - failed to prepare SQL: SELECT title, artist, albumartist, album, grouping, genre, filesize, length, tracknumber, year, bpm, dateadded, bitrate, samplerate, comment, playcount, lastplayed, compilation, track_id, path FROM track WHERE fileType IS 'AIFF audio file' AND bitRate > 320, Error: no such column: fileType

Smart Playlist Last Played Condition

Please consider adding a "is not in the last" option for this smart playlist rule.

I have a smart playlist in Apple Music, called been months and set it to play music I've not listened to in the last 3 months. I really miss this option in Swinsian.

Thanks

Maintenance

Hi there -- this seems like a really useful project, but I'm getting a Uncaught Exception error when I run it. I assume this is just because it hasn't been updated for new versions of Swinsian/OS X/etc, but I was wondering if you have any plans to maintain the project.
Thanks!

traktor: all tracks from swinsian added, but no playlists

hi, this tool is great, but sadly it doesn't work for me..
i've got a couple of playlists in swinsian that i want to access in traktor, but they are not generated from the command. instead all my swinsian files are added to the xml.

the playlists:

i've run ./Ximian. in traktor every track from swinsian is added under a common 'Library' playlist, but no trace of my custom playlists:

i've attached the xml:
iTunes Library.xml.zip

"Artist" tag missing from list of generated fields in XML

Hi, I noticed that when I generate an XML library file from my Swinsian music library, that the "Artist" tag is missing from the output file. Both the "Album" and "Album Artist" tags are generated, but the basic "Artist" tag is not. The "Artist" tag would be extremely helpful (it's quite essential actually) to have included in the output.

I'm not sure if this is the source of the issue, but I can see that "Artist" is missing from what looks like the track field array list in this file located here, starting on line 88: https://github.com/maarten/Ximian/blob/master/Ximian/main.swift

Could we have this updated or could somehow explain to me how to do this on my own? :-)

Thank you
