How to make a list of video files?

Post by *Nanley »

I have a lot of video files organized in folders. I want to make a list (text file) of all video files (and duration) in folder and sub-folders. I found plugin that shows videos duration, but i don't know how to save this list to text file. I tried "tree /f" command, but it didn't write duration of videos.

Is there a way to create a txt list of all video files in directory (and sub-folders) including duration of each file?

Main menu - Mark - Copy To Clipboard With All Details
This call internal command "cm_CopyFileDetailsToClip".

You can also use
cm_CopyHdrFileDetailsToClip
or
cm_SaveDetailsToFile
cm_SaveHdrDetailsToFile
which save directy to file.
Commands with "Hdr" saves with columns headers.

Create button or call directy from TC command line

Few weeks ago i request for saving output by packer plugin interface (with READ capability as well, but it seems it's to hard)

Thank you. First i used plugin to display duration and then save it. Can i make it to seek inside folders and sub-folders? Even if, will it detect video duration inside folders though?

Switch to Branch View - CTRL+B, select all files, then choose "Copy To Clipboard With Path+Details"
or run "cm_CopyFpFileDetailsToClip" or "cm_CopyHdrFpFileDetailsToClip"
