New tool for Traktor users: Traktor NML Reader
New tool for Traktor users: Traktor NML Reader Posted on: 17.06.2013 by Arthur Giammatteo Hello DJs!Exporting playlists from Traktor to HTML is a pain if you don't want to use the archaic default format of not-very-pretty HTML. Also, in an unrelated fact, Traktor automatically saves all your play sessions in XML-based history files which, unfortunately, are basically unreadable and thus useless. I've now made a quick and dirty Web application that converts Traktor NML-files to much more usable HTML and text format. With this tool you can export any of your Traktor playlists to simple and easily modifiable HTML-format that can be published as is on your homepage, or text format that you can use however you like (also in spreadsheets and other tools). Also, if you want to convert or just browse any of your history files, you can upload it to this tool and it turns it into human readable form. To use this tool just export any of your playlists to NML-format and then upload it -- that simple! I'm using this tool to publish simple HTML-playlists on my blog of my gigs. I'm sharing this with you with a hope that someone else would also find it useful. Any comments and feedback are very welcome! And the URL: http://nml-reader.appspot.com/ Have fun! :) - VS / DJ Uninen | |

| Arthur Giammatteo 19.06.2013 | Thanks for the positive comments! :) I updated the app and added a possibility to email the uploaded list, it was a feature suggestion that seemed practical. Any other feature suggestions and other feedback are still very welcome! - VS // DJ Uninen |

| Latoria Kavulich 18.06.2013 | Tried this with 2.51 .. seems to work fine. Thanks mate this is pretty handy for me. |
| Emelina Chillson 17.06.2013 | Thanks bruv. Ive been converting to m3u and exporting within winamp. Saved me a bunch of hassle. Woot! |
| Arthur Giammatteo 17.06.2013 | I've updated the script, it now reads NML versions 14 and 15. Don't know which Traktor version uses NML version 14, but you can just test it: if it works, it works. If it doesn't, feel free to email me or reply here and I'll try to fix it :) |
