iTunesDBtoTagCache Not Working

(1/2) > >>

Rcdude10tc32:
I've converted my itunesDB file and the program has output 6 (0-5) tagcache_X.tcd files and a tagcache_idx.tcd file. i've renamed them all to database_X.tcd files and replaced my current rockbox database files with these.  but when i boot rockbox and go into the database menu it says my database is not ready and wants me to re-initialize it.

Is this App no longer current?  or is there some trick i don't know.

thank you

GodEater:
Correct - it's very very old and doesn't work any more.

You also don't need it - just use Rockbox to create it's own Database from your iTunes loaded music.

Rcdude10tc32:
yea, thats what i currently do.  I was just looking for a faster way to do it. It takes a good 10 minutes for my ipod video to generate a new database with all my music in it.  Oh well, its not that big of a deal, i suppose i can wait. thanks for the reply, i was going insane with that thing anyway.

Bagder:
The database code has #ifdefs to support being able to get built for a stand-alone "PC tool" (run "make database" in tools/) but last I heard it wasn't building perfectly.

With some adjustments I bet that is a good start to make a  fine host-side tool for Rockbox database support.

Domonoky:
and if someone finds the time to start coding this, it would be nice to integrate it into rbutil :-)
