You can download my program Jampal ( http://jampal.sf.net ). This
creates a library from your mp3 files. The library can be customized to
contain any combination of mp3 frames you specify. The libraray is a
file with extension jmp and is a csv (comma separated text file)
encoded with UTF-8. If you can read a comma separated file this can do
what you want. Also there is a command line program included with
Jampal, TagUpdate, which can print the full contents of tags, also can
update them. The print output would have to be parsed to be usable for
importing to SQL.<br>

Boy, those are some great sites! I haven't yet found my answer to my
original question, but I've found lots of other really interesting
stuff. I'll do some better digging in those sites tonight.<br>
<br>
Again, thanks.<br>
<br>
ps. I have learned that Mp3tag can export CSV, and that TkSQLite can
import CSV. So maybe there is a combo of these that will create my ID3
database.<br class="yiv761764691yui-cursor">

<div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 10pt;">I hope this is a
legitimate question for this mailing list. Given the audience, I
figured it was worth a shot.<br>
<br>
Does anyone know of a software program (preferably free) that will read
the ID3 tags from a Windows folder full of mp3 files and pump them into
something like an SQLite database? It would be important to also
capture the path to each file file location.<br>
<br>
I can do this using popular software like MediaMonkey, since its
"Library" is an SQLite database that contains the ID3 info and path
info for each file selected. Songbird also creates an SQLite DB. But
these are big programs containing players and other baggage. <br>
<br>
Is there something out there that will just collect the tag and path
info, and arrange it into a searchable/sortable database?<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
