I love the Music Report feature built in into Hindenburg but when using many short clips from each song – as I do when editing documentaries – the output gets a bit messy and one have to sum the duration for every title, including converting minutes/seconds forth and back. This script takes the output from Music Report (it gets copied into clipboard) and outputs a csv-file with title, artist and total duration for each song.
If you just want to clean up your music report without any use of python go to https://musicreport.lasseedfast.se
Make sure you have pyperclip installed, else run pip install pyperclip
In terminal:
cd users/path/to/project/folder
The project folder can be any folder, like the one you use for your Hindenburg project
In Hindenburg:
Choose File > Music Report, then Copy
In terminal:
Write "python" and then drag the musicreport.py file into the terminal window, should then look like python users/path/to/musicreport.py
You can of course start in Hindenburg, just make sure you're not copying anything – like a path – before you run the script as the script gets the info from clipboard.
