CSV Format #33

Closed Skrappjaw closed 4 years ago

Format output options would be amazing. I do Editing in reaper and it has CSV import features.

example reaper format

Name,Start marker,0:00:00:00 marker,0:00:00:20

This format would make everything amazing.

Here's some linux terminal commands that you can use. Also helps to add an extra :00 at the end of the format in the OBS options. %d:%02d:%02d:00 <--

$ sed -i 's/.RECORDING.//' timestamps.txt $ sed -i 's/-//g' timestamps.txt $ sed -i '1 c\Start Name' timestamps.txt $ cp timestamps.txt timestamps.csv

This code just takes out the unimportant stuff and makes it more inline with standard CSV formatting. Reaper requires the names of the columns in the header line and CSV columns are separated by either white space or a single character. If the infowriter output was standard csv, there would be much less work in using this to import markers into audio/video editors.

Officially posted the new version that includes this feature.
