I'm trying to convert the URLs contained in iTunes' XML file into a form comparable with the filenames returned by iTunes' COM interface.
I'm writing a podcast sorter in Python; I'm using iTunes under Windows right now. iTunes' COM provides most of my data input and all of my mp3/aac editing capabilities; the one thing I can't access through COM is the Release Date, which is my primary sorting field. So I read everything in through COM, then read all the release dates from the iTunes XML file, then try to join the two together... But so far I have zero success. Is there _any_ way to match up tracks between iTunes COM and iTunes XML? I've spent far too much effort on this. I'm not stuck on using filenames, if that's a bad idea... But I haven't found anything else that works, and filenames seem like an obvious solution. -Wm -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
