[dba-Tech] RealPlayer db format?

Hi Arthur and John

I guess it's in:
C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application Data\Real\RealPlayer\History
(collection of shortcuts)

and:
C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application Data\Real\RealPlayer\db
(dbf files with track info etc.)

Hi Arthur,
I couldn't even find the database for RealPlayer's library. It wasn't where
the preferences said it should be.

One suggestion would be to see if MusicMatch Player can import it.
MusicMatch's library is an mdb file. If that doesn't work (I coouldn't try
it since I couldn't find RealPlayer's library) another thought would be to
ave RealPlayer load it all into a portable player and then use MusicMatch
and suck it back out of the portable player into its own library.

Does anyone know how RealPlayer stores its data? I would like to inhale my
Real db into Access, with all the disc and track info. I have approximately
1000 CDs recorded so far (1/3 the way through the stack) and I would love to
have all the info in an Access db.
