Default GUI for DDP (songs and album)

The process to create DDP is easy, but prone to errors.
i.e. if a mis-typing occurs o PERFORMER= for instance and you write PERFOMER=

And also, because normally the filenames are numbered and they are the titles of the songs, it will be interesting to read the file names automatically, so that in the field #Title| the file name is already reported (with the possibility to change it, of course.

For instance, if the filename is so structured:
1.Song Title_Album name_Performer name.wav (separated by underscore)

the GUI will get automatically
Title = Song Title (i can actually correct/change it manually, in case)
Album = Album Name (if present, i can actually correct/change it manually, in case)
Performer = Performer Name (if present, i can actually correct/change it manually, in case)

And then adding the other fields as
ISRC
COMPOSER
SONGWRITER
ARRANGER
MESSAGE


And for the album

SONGWRITER
COMPOSER
GENRE
IDENTIFICATION
LANGUAGE
MESSAGE

Is there any chance to get a simple integrated GUI for this purposes?

Hi.
I would have to agree with your request for sure.

The DDP part of Reaper is an extension.
The Author of the original code included a GUI marker editor, but it never made into Reaper.

For now, here's an option that may make things easier for you.
See this thread.

That's GALACTIC!!!

I DO propose to include this on Reaper.
IT IS the missing step! And much credits to the Author!

I think, this should be added to the already existing metadata part of Reaper and forwarded to the export-plugin somehow.
Another UI wouldn't be a good idea imho. When doing it in Reaper's metadata-feature, it could be programmed in ReaScript and it could also be included in project templates for recurring entries.

I second the "Render" option with all the DDP metadata.

The more standardized, the better.

Why up there? That each time people have to go there to check for it.
Markers has to be setup. Wanted or not wanted.

Thus a thing like this GUI is great and it suffice. And it can be activated by a pushbutton right on the toolbar (Like I did setup yesterday)
