ChordPro text files not showing in V6.1.4

[B Smith]

I have been a user for a long time, but recently made the jump to v6.  My library includes many text files that seem to be in ChordPro format, which I recall, worked in V5.6.  Now, when I attempt to open these files, I just get a blank page.

If I re-import them, that seems to work.  Is there a way to bulk import?  I'd rather not go through the entire library to test each file for blank pages.

Hey there,

I expect Gareth or I've if the developing team would be able to give you some options specifically for v6.

If I was importing a bulk of ChordPro songs, I would use my PC and then use the desktop OpenSong Import Utility.

https://opensong.org/downloads/. It is called OpenSong Import v1.3 under the Utilities section.

This can import almost any file format that has a logical layout.

After the batch import to my PC version of OpenSong, it would sync to my Tablet for OpenSongApp.

I've added a feature to bulk import songs coming in the next version:

It will also attempt to import Word files(.docx only).
