How to convert Banshee playlists to mpd?

Does anyone know how to convert Banshee playlists into mpd-readable ones?  mpd doesn't seem to like .m3u playlists exported from Banshee, not much info on this on the web either.  Wondering if this is a solved problem but just not written about much?

Having a look at my mpd playlists (which are .m3u files), they are just a text list of paths to all the tracks in the playlist.
Perhaps posting a sample .m3u file exported from banshee will help, as we can compare the differences.
Cheers.

  • How to convert and replace itunes m4a playlist with mp3 playlist

    In Itunes, I want to convert a playlist of 200 songs from m4a to mp4 but don't want to have to struggle with creating the new playlist (ie, making a list of the songs and finding them in the library and dragging them into the new replacement playlist) or deleting the old m4a songs from the library (finding them and deleting them either by hunting them down or identifying the m4a duplicates and deleting them). 
    I know I can convert them en masse within itunes but then I've got to hunt them down in the library to recreate the new playlist and delete the old m4as.
    I can't seem to come up with a smooth way of doing that.  I thought I could drag them from itunes to my desktop, or even to a flash drive, but when I drag them back into itunes they don't come back in as mp3s but remain m4as (I did set the preferences import settings to mp3 so I don't know why that aspect doesn't work for me). 
    Any suggestions for how to do this efficiently would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi, and thanks again for your input.  I will do whatever works.  Conversion works fine to convert, but then I have to hunt down each of the 200 newly converted songs to recreate the playlist of mp3s, and then hunt down each of the old files in the library to delete them. 
    So I tried to figure out another way to do it.  It occured to me that if I exported the songs and then re-imported them, then they would be imported as mp3s due to the preference setting in Itunes, but I can't make that happen (they come back in as m4a).  If I could, I thought I could just import (drag them in) to a new playlist and then I could delete the old playlist - allthough the problem then would be that the old playlist songs would still be in the library, but I think I read where I could do something like option delete (from within the old playlist) to actually remove the files from the library.  Then I wouldn't have to hunt for the old songs.
    My ignorance is due to my not using the proper terminology.  I just saw the suffix is mp3 so I figured people would know what I meant.  Same for m4a which probably also has a more correct term than that.
    Thanks for the reference to Doug's scripts - there's a lot of them there. If I can find a way to contact Doug, I will ask him if he has a script that will do it.

  • Pocket Playlist- how to convert mp4 file to use on pocket playlist

    I have an mp4 video that i would like to use on my pocket playlist, but not sure how to convert the file?

    Hello Andy,
    I do not have an HP Pocket drive but according to the manual...
    The pocket acts as any other drive to store files on. Its the media player that you use that has to support the type of file you are playing.
    This is cut from the manual.
    "File types supported by HP Pocket PlaylistYour playback device may not support all of the following formats. If your playback device does not support a format, use the ArcSoft MediaConverter 7 computer application to convert (transcode) the files into a format that will play back on your mobile device.
    HP Pocket Playlist supports the following file formats:
    Video: .avi, .3gp, .flv, .m4v, .m4p, .mov, mp4, .mpeg, .mpeg2, .mpg, .ogg, .qt, .ts, .tts, .wmv
    Music: .aac, .ac3, .adts, asf, .lpcm, .m4a, .mp3, wav, wma
    Photo: .bmp, .gif, .jpeg, .png, .tiff, .tif
    You need to import files with the "Arcsoft Media Converter" which will convert the format for you.
    Here are the links to all the info for HP Pocket Drives.

  • How to convert string to 16 characters.

    My external unique id is too long, more then 30 characters.
    How to convert it to 30 characters using sql?

    You should find another extranal system id in order to mantain uniqueness, but you could also use the name field (that supports 50 characters), but it deppends of which entity you are using.
    Which is the entity? and...if the only way to insert data is by web services the you could use more than one field to verify uniqueness since you can query more than one field at the time.

  • How to convert Web app into a channel?

    To whom it may concern,
    Does anyone know how to convert a Web app into a channel inside the Portal server 6.0?
    I developed the web app and tried to create a provider and a channel for it, but the Portal server did not recognize the WEB-INF folder and give me errors saying that it couldn't locate the class files.
    I also have a problem with URL inside my jsp page (channel).
    For example, I have two jsp pages:
    /etc/opt/SUNWps/desktop/default/MyCustomProvider/test1.jsp
    /etc/opt/SUNWps/desktop/default/MyCustomProvider/test2.jsp
    and when I try to put a link from test1.jsp to test2.jsp using
    ... and make a channel based on test1.jsp. The channel will display the link as "http://mydomain/portal/test2.jsp" and result in "Error: page not found". I want the link to point to
    /etc/opt/SUNWps/desktop/default/MyCustomProvider/test2.jsp
    To summarize my questions,
    1) Where should the web app be located in the Portal server?
    2) How to make a link inside one jsp page (channel) to point to another page inside the same folder?

    Do you still have any other suggestions?

  • Video Format Total Solution: How to Convert and Edit Video on Windows/Mac

    More and More video formats are coming out with different video encoders and it makes our spare time more and more colorful. However, it is not to say that there is no problems. Actually, different video formats make it difficult to share video with others, even your own camcorder and iPod. Is there an easy way to convert videos effectively. Yes, there is.
    In this article, I will show you guys how to convert videos on windows and mac.
    Part 1. How to Convert and Edit Videos on Windows
    For Windows users, you need a Video Converter(http://www.aiseesoft.com/total-video-converter.html) to do that for you.
    Here I use Aiseesoft Total Video Converter(http://www.aiseesoft.com/total-video-converter.html)
    Step 1: Download and install Aiseesoft Total Video Converter
    After you download it to your computer, double click it and it is really easy to install.
    You just need to click “next” and it will complete it in seconds. It will automatically run after installation.
    http://www.aiseesoft.com/images/guide/total-video-converter/screen.jpg
    Step 2: Load Video
    Click “Add File” to find the video that you want to convert and click “open”. It will be loaded automatically.
    Step 3: Select the target to decode
    In the “Profile” drop download list you can find your target according the usage of your output video, such as if you want to put the video on your iPod touch, you can select the “iPod” in the first list and “iPod touch 2 MPEG-4 640*480(*.mp4)” in the second list.
    Step 4: Set Advanced Parameters
    After you select the right output profile, you can click “setting” button to set your advanced parameters. You can adjust video and audio settings separately. In video section, you can change “video encoder”, “resolution”, “frame rate”, “video bitrate”In audio section, you can change “audio encoder”, “sample rate”, “channel”, “audio bitrate”If you want to save this profile and settings and use it next time you can click “save as” button to give a name to it. And the next time you want to use it you can find it in the profile list named “user defined”.
    Step 5: Choose a Destination
    To browse and find a output folder for your output files or just the default one.
    Finally, Click “Convert” button to begin your conversion, here in the converting
    interface you can choose “shut down the computer when conversion complete” or “open output folder when conversion complete” or you just do not choose neither one.
    Tips: How to Edit the Output Video
    This video converter is also a video editor, you can use it to edit your output video as follows:
    http://www.aiseesoft.com/images/guide/total-video-converter/effect.jpg
    1. Effect:
    You are allowed to adjust the “Brightness”, “Contrast”, “Saturation” and you can choose the “deinterlacing” to make the video more enjoyable.
    2. Trim:
    In “Trim” section you can pick up any part of the video to convert.
    There are two ways to select the part of the video you want. One is set the start and end time in the box. The other one is to drag the start and end button in the processing bar.
    3. Crop:
    This function allows you to choose a certain play area to convert. That means you can choose a part of the screen you like to convert. For example, you just like the tv in the middle of the screen, then you can drag the frame around the preview window to select the tv and the output preview will show you the output video.In this section you can also choose the “zoom mode”, such as “keep original”, “full screen”, “16:9”, “4:3”.
    4. Watermark
    In the section, you can add a watermark on the output video to show people something, such as your name, website, studio name or other things. The watermark could be words and picture. You can adjust the transparent of the watermark easily to make it more beautiful.
    Part 2. How to Convert Video on Mac
    This time you need a Video Converter for Mac(http://www.aiseesoft.com/video-converter-for-mac.html)
    Step 1: Add File
    Click “Add File” button to load the video you want to converter
    http://www.aiseesoft.com/images/guide/mac-video-converter/steps.jpg
    Step 2: Choose profile and adjust settings
    You can find your output video format from a drop-list called “Profile”You can also adjust the specific settings of the output video, such as “Resolution”, “Bitrate”, “Encoder” and so on.

    Hello Jay,
    Don't use SSIS to convert. Use SSIS to FTP the files out.
    How you convert to PDF: the format is owned by Adobe so there might be royalties involved, but there are paid and free (OSS) libraries to doing so. Just search online.

  • Very Urgent--- How to Convert Non Valuated stk into Valuated

    Dear GURU'S
    Actually for a material A when i see the stock in MM03 in accounting tab i see less stock then when i see in MMBE
    i.e in MMBE if i select Material A and Plant B(Which is depo in my case) i see stock as 39
    but for same material MAterial A and Plant B ,if i see in MM03 --in accounting tab i m able to see less stock i.e only 1
    ============================================
    Well the problem is In MM03 I cud see only valuated stk i.e qty as 1
    And in MMBE for a partiocular material for a particular plant the stock was 39
    i.e Here i am getting Valuated + Non valuated stock
    i.e i am getting difference of 25
    =====>>>
    To get into the root cause
    I have gone to MB5B where i can get all the transaction that has been done on this material with movement type also i got the intial stock ,Goods recpt ,Goods  issu and total stock
    No for a particular material
    In MB5B it is showing
    Stock on 01.01.2005    =  38
    receipts total               = 238
    Issues total                  =237
    Stock as on 18.02.2008 = 39(which is equal to Stock in MMBE)
    =============>This is for valuated +Non valuated stock
    Where as if i want to see only valuated stock it was showing
    receipts total      = 238
    Issues total         =237
    Stock as on 18.02.2008 =1  (which is equal to stock in acctg view in MM03)
    ====================>This is only for Valuated Stock
    ======================================
    Now how to solve this :
    The initial qty(38) which has been posted it was at the begining that is at the start of the project
    And the people who have posted it ,it was non valuated
    that is the reason it is showing difference in MM03 and MMBE
    First thing
    How can i see on which date this initial stock has been posted
    Second Query
    How to convert this non valuated stock into Valuated stock
    So that the quantity in MMBE and MM03 gets matched
    Willl award 10 Points if my problem gets solved
    THANKZ IN ADVANCE

    are non valuated stock ,means they have been posted without any valuation
    But from year 2007(01.02.2007) the documents whiohc have been posted are valuated
    i.e is the reason when i am executing transaction MRN9 to check the history of valuated stock
    I cant see non valuated stock
    Well now how to do the valuation of this stock which have been posted in year 2006 so that
    In MMBE and MM03 there is no difference of stock

    how to convert a class file to exe file

    Hi Bhaskarq,
    Hi,
    It is not at all possible.
    But it is a really worst method.
    Please go through it.
    This is a very common question asked in the comp.lang.java newsgroup. Its often useful to have an
    executable application when deploying your
    applications to a specific platform, but remember to
    make your .class files available for users running
    Unix/Macintosh/other platforms.
    Microsoft provide a free system development kit (SDK),
    for Java, which includes the jexegen tool. This
    will convert class files into a .EXE form. The only
    disadvantage is that users need a Microsoft Java
    Virtual Machine (JVM) installed. If your target
    platform is Win32, you can either redistribute the
    virtual
    machine, or raise the level of your system
    requirements, to include Windows 98, or Windows 95
    with
    Internet Explorer 4. Systems matching these
    requirements will already have a copy of the Microsoft
    Java Virtual Machine installed.
    Note : You must specify all of the class files your
    application needs (except for standard java packges)
    as a parameter, so if you have third party libraries,
    you'll need to include them as well. You can use wildcards * though, and you don't need the original source code.
    Also please see this Forum which will give a good idea
