Importing a DVD list from a file

Use the Media view to populate DVD metadata stored on a disc changer.

To import a DVD list:

  1. Start Composer Pro and connect to a Director.
  1. Click Media view.
  2. Right-click on the Disc Changer, and select Import DVD List from File. Composer Pro automatically populates the slots of the disc changer with the DVDs stored in each slot as listed in the file that is imported.

    3. The imported file must be a CSV (comma-separated value) file listing the slots and the titles of the DVDs, one per line. You can create this file using a simple text editor or spreadsheet program by exporting a spreadsheet file in a CSV formatted file. This new feature provides a simple and easy way to quickly configure all of the DVDs in any manufacturer’s disc changer. 

    Example formatting for CSV file:

    • 1, Toy Story
    • 2, The Incredibles
    • 3, The Perfect Storm
