Feature to import ratings and playlists from an iTunes Library

Open AnnoyingTechnology opened this issue 6 years ago • 0 comments

Hi,

Since I switched to Linux, I kept a backup of my iTunes library (both the binary and XML files), with lots of playlists, all play counts, track ratings...

It would be very nice to be able to re-import all data that it into Noise/Music, a lot of time went into sorting/rating. So a nice to have feature !

In the meantime, if I code a script, independent from the Music/Noise app, and push infos directly in it's sqlite database (~/.local/share/noise/database_0_3_1.db), could that cause some trouble, or would it be OK ? It would probably be loose-matching, but better than nothing. I mostly want to restore :

  • playlists,
  • smart playlists
  • play counts
  • date added
  • last played
  • rating

Thanks.
