Hello,

Someone sent me an html file that supposedly contains the iReal Pro chords for 12 songs we need to practice.
In do not have iReal Pro so was wondering if this can be imported into BIAB somehow?

Regards
Bernt

Can you upload one as it might be able to be converted to song text that can be pasted in Biab.

EDIT: have a look here

It seems to work ok.
You can go to the forum and copy a link
https://irealb.com/forums/
https://www.irealb.com/forums/showthread.php?12753-Jazz-1400-Standards&p=68564#post68564

then paste in the URL and hit enter
https://blog.karimratib.me/demos/musicxml/

There will be an musicXML link to download and in Biab Open or Open Special.
You can also play it back in the page.

Thank you.
I tried to upload the html here but apparently only images are permitted in this forum.
I tried renaming it. Did not work :-(

I was able to paste the complete text content of the html here but it seems to widen the forum layout something crazy. This forum seems to have an issue with wide txt and no gaps.
I deleted that again.

Is there any other way I am not aware of?

EFIT: I will send you the html contents in text form in a PM.

Regards
Bernt

Hello,

Thank you, for the help. It is greatly appreciated!


This has now worked for me in 23 out of 24 songs.

The only one I cannot not get to work is from a 2nd html file I have with:
Track 8 Far-Away-Blues-CG-2

It gives an exception, as shown in the attached image, when trying to open it in BIAB

I have pasted the second file into another PM.

Despite best help and effort, I am still having issues.

From the file as supplied earlier,
Track 11 You Tell Me in Your Dreams will not import.

I tried re-exporting it from Musiscore in xml and musicXml.

No go.

What else can I try?


Regards
Bernt

This file version you linked still results in an access violation when opening in BIAB here though.
