Capture Sweden, EOS and CSV Datas

I link her a post from the Facebook Group Capture Design.
https://www.facebook.com/groups/capturedesignvisualisation/permalink/1586565094712962/?comment_id=1586667321369406&comment_tracking=%7B%22tn%22%3A%22R1%22%7D
(I hope it works)

 

In this the question was, why can't Capture read CSV from EOS Console.
Capture says, the CSV is not correct.
Have anybody a Solution?

    Hi :)
    I join in...
    To give further informations: ( Because i am not sure if anybody who is not member of the facebook group will be able to see the post):
    I tried to import a CSV from ETC eos for patch data, resafed it after exporting with a editor in UTF-8 code as capture requires...this did not help.
    Following Error: The file does not seem to contain more than 2 or more lines.

    I talked with Lars from capture further, he told me, that the exported file from Eos isn´t a valid CSV file as it has two blocks of data with different column sets.

    So i have no idea, how a valid CSV file should be or not. But is it correct that the eos one isn´t valid? And if so: Why and will there be a solution for that?

    Thanks in advance :)

    I have no experience with Capture, but I would try this:
    - On Eos CSV Export, deselect all data types except Patch. This gives you a CSV file that has nothing but the Patch section.
    - Use a text editor to compare this CSV file with a patch file that was created by Capture
    - I guess you simply have to delete everything except the lines between the "START_CHANNELS" and "END_CHANNELS" keywords

    But it does not answered my question if the exported CVS files from eos are valid or not!?

    i'm not sure if CSV is a standardized and if so how detailed the definition is.

    in the Eos-csv it is true that there are multiple sets of data. each block has its own column definition. you can't define patch and content of cues, or presets, ... with the same set of columns, so each section of the file gets its own column definition and thus width. i'm pretty sure the Eos-csv is just multiple Lars-csv within one file.

    this mix of columns makes it a handy export because you only need one file. there are other csv export in eos like for Fast Focus Pro. that produces hundreds and hundreds of files.

    so while i'm no computer expert and can't say anything about the csv standard i know that there are programs that specifically work with the current eos csv export. so it looks to me that it would be possible to work with the data as it currently is exported.

    but as i said i'm a console programmer not a computer programmer. my knowledge ends with html and javascript ;)
