Suppose I have a file structure on a CD/DVD like this:

[VIDEO FOLDER 1]
---[VFolder1]
---VideoFile1.avi
---VideoFile1.srt
---VideoFile1-ENG.srt

[VIDEO FOLDER 2]
---[VFolder2]
---VideoFile2.avi
---VideoFile2.srt
---VideoFile2-ENG.srt

[VIDEO FOLDER 3]
---[VFolder3]
---VideoFile3.avi
---VideoFile3.srt
---VideoFile3-ENG.srt

So when I open my CD/DVD I see this
[VIDEO FOLDER 1]
[VIDEO FOLDER 2]
[VIDEO FOLDER 3]

I'd like to write such a script that does the followings:

1. Open [VIDEO FOLDER 1]
2. Select all the files and folders inside it.
3. Copy the names of them with the file sizes in KB (bytes) into a .txt file.

That is I'd like to get a video.txt file with the following contents:
[VIDEO FOLDER 1]
---[VFolder1]
---VideoFile1.avi --> Size: 338 854 KB (346 986 494 bytes)
---VideoFile1.srt --> Size: 1 KB (347 bytes)
---VideoFile1-ENG.srt --> Size: 1 KB (347 bytes)

Then

4. Go to the next folder [VIDEO FOLDER 2]
Get the same information like at [VIDEO FOLDER 1]

5. Append this new text information to the file video.txt

6. Do the same with [VIDEO FOLDER 3]

At the end I'd like to get a video.txt file with the following contents:

[VIDEO FOLDER 1]
---[VFolder1]
---VideoFile1.avi
---VideoFile1.srt
---VideoFile1-ENG.srt

[VIDEO FOLDER 2]
---[VFolder2]
---VideoFile2.avi
---VideoFile2.srt
---VideoFile2-ENG.srt

[VIDEO FOLDER 3]
---[VFolder3]
---VideoFile3.avi
---VideoFile3.srt
---VideoFile3-ENG.srt

And when this is done, eject the CD/DVD.

Question:
In first round I try something like that:

sel a; #1048; wait 500; #102; writefile("test_A.txt", "<clipboard>");

I get something like that in txt file:
---[VFolder1]
---VideoFile1.avi
---VideoFile1.srt
---VideoFile1-ENG.srt

BUT how can I append the next text to this txt file
when I open the the [VIDEO FOLDER 2]?

My txt file should look like this:

---[VFolder1]
---VideoFile1.avi
---VideoFile1.srt
---VideoFile1-ENG.srt

---[VFolder2]
---VideoFile2.avi
---VideoFile2.srt
---VideoFile2-ENG.srt

Code: Select all

$drive = "C:\";
    $folders = folderreport("dirsrel", "r", $drive, , , "|");
    $list = "";
    foreach($folder, $folders, "|") {
        $list = $list . $folder . "<crlf>" . folderreport("files:{name} {size kb}", "r", "$drive$folder", , , "<crlf>") . "<crlf 2>";
    }
    writefile("test_A.txt", $list);

Something like that?

You'd just have to edit the drive letter for your dvd drive...

Thank you very much. It is perfect.

I re-thought what I would like, and wrote the script too.

I share my script here if anyone intresed in it:

My file structure on my dvd:

[01 VIDEO FOLDER 1-3] - (2009) - INFO
...[info1]
...[info2]
...[info3]
...info_text.txt

[VIDEO FOLDER 1]
...[VFolder1]
...[1]
...VideoFile1.avi
...VideoFile1.srt
...VideoFile1-ENG.srt

[VIDEO FOLDER 2]
...[VFolder2]
...[1]
...VideoFile2.avi
...VideoFile2.srt
...VideoFile2-ENG.srt

[VIDEO FOLDER 3]
...[VFolder3]
...[1]
...VideoFile3.avi
...VideoFile3.srt
...VideoFile3-ENG.srt

I see this when I open my dvd:

[01 VIDEO FOLDER 1-3] - (2009) - INFO
[VIDEO FOLDER 1]
[VIDEO FOLDER 2]
[VIDEO FOLDER 3]

This is my script:

Code: Select all

VideoInfosFromDVD.xys

//1.) First Pane  - DVD with video folders.
//2.) Second Pane - create a folder where you want report to from the first Pane.
//3.) Start script.

End Confirm("Copy video infos from DVD?", "#") == 0, "Stopped -> !! DO IT MANUALLY !!";

 Sel; 
 Sel f; Sel i;  //SELECT FOLDERS
 $NOF_folders = 0; //NOF: number of
 $NOF_folders = Get("CountSelected");  //COUNT FOLDERS
 Sel; Sel 1;

 $i = 1;

 while ($i <= $NOF_folders) {

   #1048; //FOCUS
   #162;   //OPEN folder
   $a = Report('{name} --- [{Size MB}] - [{Size KB}] - [{size B} bytes].' . "<crlf>"); 
   $a = Replace("$a", " --- [] - [] - [ bytes].", ""); //remove folder sizes
   $a = "<curfolder>" . "<crlf>" . "$a"; //add the current foldername to the string
   CopyText "$a";  //copy string to the clipboard
   //Msg "<clipboard>"; 
   $b = Get("path", 2); //get the path of second pane
   WriteFile("$b\<curfolder>.txt", "<clipboard>", "r"); Wait 500; //put the report to a txt file on other pane
   Button "up"; 
   sel "+1"; //next folder

 //End Confirm("Repeat ##on next folder?", "#") == 0, "Stopped -> !! DO IT MANUALLY !!";

   $i++;
 }

After I run my script, I will get txt files:

[01 VIDEO FOLDER 1-3] - (2009) - INFO.txt
[VIDEO FOLDER 1].txt
[VIDEO FOLDER 2].txt
[VIDEO FOLDER 3].txt

In every txt file there will be that content I can see when I click on the folder
(with the file sizes in MB, KB and bytes).

[01 VIDEO FOLDER 1-3] - (2009) - INFO.txt
CONTAINS:
[01 VIDEO FOLDER 1-3] - (2009) - INFO
