exporting Audition markers as XML files?

[anton9800]

Hello!  This is probably a pretty unusual question, but I was wondering if there's a way to export cue marker time positions out of Audition as an XML instead of a CSV file?   I realize there are online tools that will convert from csv to xml, but I'm wondering if an XML export is possible straight out of Audition.

Thank you!

As far as I'm aware (and I have checked...) there's no way to export markers other than as CSV files, I'm afraid.

Are you looking for a specific XML format?  I don't think it would be terribly difficult to write a custom extension to do this.  What is the destination or intention?

My goal is to easily parse through and extract individual marker timing in applications such as Animate and then use that data for automatically timed animations.  I can bring in CSV files as well, but they're not as easy to work with as XML files are.

Ideally, it'd be great to structure an xml file in the following manner:

<marker>

     <time>00:00:00:00</time>

</marker>

<marker>

     <time>00:00:10:14</time>

</marker>

etc...

that way I can easily parse through and create arrays that will hold all necessary things for me to easily trigger animations at proper times so they're synced with audio without any additional manual work.
