CSV setlist export / import

CSV export saves the setlist as a plain-text spreadsheet, giving you a portable backup or a starting point for documentation. CSV import reads a file list back into LTCast, relinking audio files automatically where possible.

Exporting the setlist

Click Export CSV in the setlist toolbar. A save dialog appears — choose a location and file name. LTCast writes one row per song with columns for:

  • Song name (display name as shown in the setlist)
  • File path (the absolute path to the audio file on disk)
  • Duration (in seconds)
  • Any per-song offset values

If the setlist is empty, LTCast shows a message and does not create a file.

Importing from CSV

Choose File → Import CSV and select a CSV file. LTCast reads the file path column and attempts to add each referenced audio file to the setlist. Files that exist on disk are linked automatically and appear normally. Files that cannot be found are added as missing entries with a red badge.

CSV format requirements for import

The CSV must contain a column with the full absolute path to each audio file. LTCast looks for this column by header name. An optional name column is used for the display name in the setlist — if absent, LTCast uses the file name from the path. Additional columns are ignored.

Partial import

If some files are not found, LTCast completes the import and reports how many songs were added successfully and how many could not be linked. Missing files remain in the setlist as placeholders and can be relinked later using the Relink Files function.

CSV export is useful for sharing a setlist structure with a colleague who will load it on a different machine — they can relink the files to their own paths after importing.
