Love the script. However, I noticed a couple of issues with it
that you might want to fix:
1) The following iTunes
fields might be blank in the xml file, and result in the script dying when
trying to insert null values into the SQL: artist, track (this
should be simple to fix)
2) I used the script to import
an xml file from iTunes running on Windoze. One huge problem is that
Windoze is case-insensive for file paths, and linux (and almost every
other non-MS based OS) is case-sensitive. The result that the import
seemed to work, but playing the files would result in libMad failing
(can't find the file.) I don't think there's much you can do to fix
this in the script (except perhaps warn?)
Thank you for
contributing your work
