Description

I love the Music Report feature built in into [Hindenburg] (https://hindenburg.com/products/hindenburg-journalist-pro) but when using many short clips from each song as I do when editing documentaries the output gets a bit messy and one have to sum the duration for every title, including converting minutes/seconds forth and back. This script takes the output from Music Report (it gets copied into clipboard) and outputs a csv-file with title, artist and total duration for each song.

Instructions

Make sure you have Pandas installed, else run pip install pandas

In terminal:

cd users/path/to/project/folder

The project folder can be any folder, like the one you use for your Hindenburg project

In Hindenburg:

Choose File > Music Report, then Copy

In terminal:

Write "python" and then drag the musicreport.py file into the terminal window, should then look like python users/path/to/musicreport.py

You can of course start in Hindenburg, just make sure you're not copying anything like a path before you run the script as the script gets the info from clipboard.
