Printing Playlists & Files

Has anybody figured out how to print a hard copy of your master play list as a text file? It would be very helpful to be able to copy and paste the entire text into a word processing document. I've finally figured out how to do an awkward "print screen" but that doesn't show the entire play list.

For that matter it would be even handier to be able to print text versions of my music files. I know this is a Windows problem, not a Raduga problem, but it seems impossible to print an entire list of songs in a particular music file. I can open a list in Windows Explorer and look at it to my heart's content, but I can't print that list. I thought I had a solution by maximizing the window I want to capture, holding down ALT + Print Screen and then pasting the results in a Word document. Unfortunately, if there are more songs than will fit on just one window, I can’t print them, Thank you Bill Gates.

Any suggestions?

Just go to http://www.wolosoft.com/en/raduga/alb2html.html
and upload your playlist file. The alb2html tool will create a formatted web site which you can print easily with Internet Explorer.

If you don't like the default format, you may optionally upload a custom template file.

Well, I could do that, but the computer that is running Raduga is not connected to the Internet (intentionally). I’m sure I could temporarily connect it to a phone line, but that would be really awkward on a regular basis. Is there another way to do this?

A very easy task, indeed! Just open your playlist (*.alb) with MS Notepad and print it!

Thanks Bill, I'll try that. I knew it had to be easy!

Now does anybody know how to print a list of all the music files in the computer? I can view them in Windows Explorer, but printing the list seems to be another story.

Another easy one. Here's how:

In XP push Start>All Programs>Accessories>Command Prompt

You will now have a DOS window. In the window type the following:

dir c:\*.mp3 /s /b /w > c:\mp3's.txt

Windows will scan all of drive C for mp3's and make a txt file list of them saved as mp3's.txt on the root of your drive c.

You can do the same for every hard drive in your system by changing the c:\*.mp3 to d:\*.mp3, etc.
