Date: Thu, 5 Sep 2002 11:39:29 -0400 I think an easier solution would be to simply search the current playlist by song name. That way you don't need a separate database (that will obviously become out of date, or the generation tool won't be available when you need it). The most useful parts of songs are usually in the filename and directory name. -----Original Message----- From: Lucas Gonze [mailto:lgonze_at_panix.com] Sent: Thursday, September 05, 2002 11:18 AM To: rockbox_at_cool.haxx.se Subject: Re: search a string Francois -- This is a good thing that would be really usefuj. ...I wrote a console mode ID3 tag browser (which is imo much better than mp3info), but need a persistent db and have been too lazy to write it. I think the things a db needs are: * file timestamps, so you can reload updated tags * ID3 tag values like TRK vs. TRCK, not just summations like "song" * output convenient for piping to xargs there is a complication that I've noticed in gnu locate: a find should only return files that the caller has read permissions on. - Lucas ************************************************************************* This message is intended only for the stated addressee(s) and may be confidential.
