Thank you Fred and David. You have both been most helpful. One other quick
question while I'm thinking about music libraries. Is there a way to use a
spreadsheet of music library data (talktime, segue points, hooks etc) with a
Rivendell library? For instance the data provided by Charlie Davy
(http://www.charliedavy.co.uk/music-library/) and others. It would be useful
to take out some of the grunt work from setting up a library. Thanks Andy ----

Andy, I have not yet found a need to use rivendell_filter, but I *have* used
(something like): rdexport --xml --format=FLAC --carts=START1:END1
--carts=START2:END2 /tmp/foo (where /tmp/foo is the directory that will hold
the FLAC and XML files) to export multiple, contiguous ranges of carts. The use
of the "--xml" switch enables rdexport to save pretty much all of the metadata
(including markers) in XML files next to the FLAC files (same output
directory). I have also imported those previously-exported files into a
different Rivendell instance. My experience has been that the GROUP and CART
number in the XML files are ignored when using `rdimport --xml ...`. There may
be a switch I'm missing to force use of those specific XML values, but it has
not been a problem for me... Hope this helps! ~David Klann
