The idea of being able to rework portions of an existing library in a bulk manor is great!
That said, here are some ideas to make RDMarkerSet a lot more useful to us: 1) Allow an optional cart ranges to be specified as well as the group. This will help deal with when a staff member imports new material into the library, to an existing group, but then does something wrong that can be corrected in a "bulk" manor. 2) Add the ability to change more markers, specifically the segue markers would be good for us (recalculate to a different dB fade level), but I'm sure the ability to change other markers would be useful for others too. I'd also like the ability to set that "Don't fade on Segue" option in a bulk manor too (granted someone suggested just doing this in the database directly, but I would sure be nice if a database cheat sheet with tricks like this made it to the wiki for us that don't know SQL). Related to that setting segue levels based on dB of fade, it is real nice having that in the command-line version of rdimport as it gives an excellent starting point when importing music (usually gets it good enough about 90% of the time for us, a real time saver!). I would be nice if an automatic segue setting function like this can be added to the normal GUI import section of rdlibrary as a settable default like the trim levels. Then if that isn't enough, it would also be nice if these settings could be different per groups, for example we don't want to automatically segue commercial traffic! Really I'm happy with how I've been able to automate so many processes in Rivendell/Linux that I haven't been able to do for other broadcasters I work for that use other premium playout systems.
