Is there a way to pass import a list of directories from a text file?

Or call import from within a plugin?

hi, is there an efficient way to maintain/sync changes to a webdav stored beets-tagged-music-collection in beets AND mpd's database along with modifications is file paths to mpd playlists?

tcollins: cat $file |xargs beet import

s3jjss: webdavfs maybe?

DjSlash: webdavfs allows mounting volumes just fine. I do not want entire song files downloaded and uploaded back and forth just for minor tag/folder changes

DjSlash: Can import be called from within a plugin?

hey everyone, quick question

how can I tell beets to not interpret spaces as spaces in the path?

I was running a modify query and beet fails to replace the spaces in the artist and album for "The\ Artist" in the path to the file

hello?

hello

i try to get beets running on windows, now ive got an error

paste the error to a pastebin like pastie.org

how can I tell beets to not interpret spaces as spaces in the file path? I was running a modify query and beet fails to replace the spaces in the artist and album, example: "The\ Artist"

marcoamorales: Not sure I get your question. What were you expecting beets to do exactly?

hey sampsyo_ I guess the problem that I'm having is not really the path, I can't figure out why the first time I try to mod something, it can't find the file, the second time it will

this is the error that I get

error reading /Users/marco/music/The Lonely Island/Incredibad/02 Santana DVX.mp3: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/Users/marco/music/The Lonely Island/Incredibad/02 Santana DVX.mp3'

does that file exist? (if not, can you make a guess as to why not?)

It does exist :p, checked twice

as I said, if I run it again, it works, but it always fails the first time

wow, very strange—I don't have an immediate guess as to why this would be happening

beet modify album:"Incredibad" artist="The Lonely Island" <-- command that I'm running
