You can return a list of all tracks in an AFP database.

To return the contents of an AFP database

For example:

http://localhost:13000/action=AddTask&Type=AfpDatabaseInfo&Pack=Adverts&PackDir=C:\resources&Out=AdvertsDb.ctm

This action uses port 13000 to instruct HPE IDOL Speech Server, which is located on the local machine, to write the contents of the Adverts database to the AdvertsDb.ctm file.

This action returns a token. You can use the token to:

The following XML is an example of a database information log file:

<afpdb_info>
	<afpdb_track_record>
		<id>0</id>
		<tag>ADVERT1</tag>
		<start>0</start>
		<length>3384</length>
	</afpdb_track_record>
	<afpdb_track_record>
		<id>1</id>
		<tag>ADVERT2</tag>
		<start>0</start>
		<length>1858</length>
	</afpdb_track_record>
	<afpdb_track_record>
		<id>2</id>
		<tag>MUSIC1</tag>
		<start>0</start>
		<length>24000</length>
	</afpdb_track_record>
	<afpdb_track_record>
		<id>2</id>
		<tag>MUSIC1</tag>
		<start>24000</start>
	<length>11412</length>
	</afpdb_track_record>
</afpdb_info>

This example shows that the database contains three tracks: ADVERT1, ADVERT2, and MUSIC1. It displays the length of each track (in frames, where 1 frame is 10 milliseconds). It also displays the start point of the track with respect to the original audio that was indexed. This value is usually 0. However, if the audio that was indexed was longer than four minutes, it is stored in several four-minute chunks. MUSIC1 appears twice in the example because the original file was longer than four minutes, and was therefore split into two chunks. The first chunk lasts from 0-240s, and the second chunk lasts from 240-354s.

Note: The precise content of the fields might differ slightly depending on whether you are using the landmark-based or the template-based approach.

Note: If you attempt to delete a clip that has been split into chunks (such as MUSIC1), all the chunks are deleted (all share the same tag).
