Hi Andy,

I have not yet found a need to use rivendell_filter, but I *have* used
(something like):

rdexport --xml --format=FLAC --carts=START1:END1 --carts=START2:END2
/tmp/foo

(where /tmp/foo is the directory that will hold the FLAC and XML files)
to export multiple, contiguous ranges of carts. The use of the "--xml"
switch enables rdexport to save pretty much all of the metadata
(including markers) in XML files next to the FLAC files (same output
directory).

I have also imported those previously-exported files into a different
Rivendell instance. My experience has been that the GROUP and CART
number in the XML files are ignored when using `rdimport --xml ...`.
There may be a switch I'm missing to force use of those specific XML
values, but it has not been a problem for me...

Hope this helps!
