Phatnoise Music Manager
« on: June 21, 2006, 10:12:50 am »
Hi

While I'm still using Phatnoise Music Manager, I believe that this is probably the right forum to which I should post my question.  Here goes, has anyone opened the DMS databases in an application and what was it?  I want to be able to open a database and manipulate it so I can print the contents of some of my disk and not others.  I have a number of various artists disks and would like to be able to check what songs are on the disks and then play that disk.

The printing function of Phatnoise Music Manager allows printing of just the disks, or the disks and contents. When printing disks and their contents, you end up with 50 pages of songs that doesn't readily lend itself to being handy in the car.

Of course, I'd be happy to take any advice as to what would be the best way to know what's in a disk that contains many music files.

Thanks

Bob  :-?

Might be of use

If you make a playlist of the tracks or artists ect you then can open that playlist in word just right click and open with word and other office apps? it then gives you a list of all files names and change sort if required.

I think I recall someone saying that the database is in MySQL format. I could be totally wrong on this, though.

The database is SQLite

I use this utility as a simple way to grab the playlist data and paste it into a spreadsheet so I can always have an up to date printout in the car.
