From Helium Music Manager to MM: Can I import all data?

[Vaganzza]

Hi

I'm considering to change from HMM to MM. I use this program over 4 years now. As you can think I won't like to lose all my data (play counter, last played information, history, ...). Is this possible?

I now use HMM 8 with SQL Server Express 2012 on a Windows 7 Home Premium.

Please ask more information if you need this to answer my question.

not sure if your going to be able to keep the play history? as mediamonkey keeps that in his own database and not in the song file. but any information in the song file mm can see and should import it, since its part of the file.

No, MM will import data from iTunes, Winamp, or windows media player, but that's all it will do on it's own.

If you know anything about VB script or Jscript you could write an script to import the data.

In HMM I can export an .xml file with the playing data. But it seems that I can't import that in MM. I don't know anything about programming so that's not an option.

Go into the help with addons forum room here look at all the script authors and find one you think would be one you might get to make a script for you, then send them a pm.

Or post a message in the addon help section. I would be interested in replies. I have thought about taking on scripting and would be very interested in who replies.
