Thanks and Questions

[mikeglenn]

Brendan, thanks for writing mog-export. A lot of MOG users should be desperate for this right about now with a very different Beats service replacing our beloved MOG. I really want to try this, but first three newbie questions:

(1) How does one run this JavaScript after opening the MOG player?
(2) Is any browser recommended over the others? I have Firefox, Chrome and IE.
(3) I did some checking and see no reason to doubt that you're an honest developer trying to help others, but is there any words of assurance and advice you can provide to alleviate my fears about running this relatively unknown script?

Thanks for understanding.

Hi Mike,

The easiest way to run this would be to copy the code and paste it into the JavaScript Console. Chrome is probably your best bet, but other browsers may also work.

I really can't offer more assurance beyond the fact that the code is open source. It's rather succinct and shouldn't take too long to read through.

Brendan,

Okay, I have MOG player open in Chrome, opened JavaScript console, pasted your code in there and now it's just sitting there. Now what? I looked and looked and even did a Google search. A couple sites that actually mention how to run a script say I should paste it into the address bar, but that didn't work.

Sorry for being a total noob, but can you help?

Thanks,
Mike

Once you've pasted the JavaScript into the Console you need to press the Enter or Return key to evaluate it. Chrome should download the JSON file a few seconds later. Hope that helps!

Brendan,
Really appreciate your help. I had a feeling it was something so easy that almost no one bothers to mention it lol. Unfortunately for me the result is an immediate error after hitting the Enter key:
SyntaxError: Unexpected token <message: "Unexpected token <"stack: (...)get stack: function () { [native code] }set stack: function () { [native code] }proto: Error
I was careful to copy and paste all the code into console. Probably some other simple mistake on my part. If you feel you've already spent enough time on this I'll understand.
Thanks,Mike
