Hello !
I spend a lot of time rebuilding my gigabeat id3 database everytime I add music on my player. Would'nt it be great to just port the database building code to Windows/Linux in order to build rockbox database from your computer ?
Thank you !
This task depends upon

That's already possible thanks to a (very unpolished) tool that's in the tools/ dir.
I'll try to give more details before closing.

Thanks !
Can you just name the file, so I have a look at it ?

Oh sorry I forgot to give the details :)
The file is tools/database.c
You can build it with "make database", but it doesn't seem to compile ATM. Also it's still very basic, but I know it worked for me at one point.

Trying to use nmake database outputs : "makefile(9) : fatal error U1033: syntax error : '=' unexpected", while trying to build database.c using C::B warns "unreferenced" exceptions. Is there another way to build database.c ?
Apart from this, should'nt #include "../apps/tagcache.h" be used instead of #include "tagcache.h" ?
Thanks.
