First off, if you've never tried to extract the audio from a Blu-ray and have no interest in ever doing so, this will be completely uninteresting to you.
If someone hasn't already done it somewhere, I'm wondering if it would be useful to build a database of music Blu-rays listing which playlists match which program items.
Or maybe someone can tell me that I'm just doing it wrong and it doesn't need to be as much work as I turn it into: When I get a new Blu-ray that I want to extract for my server, the only way I know of to figure out what the contents are is to open the disc in AudioMuxer, open every playlist, note the duration + number of chapters + audio options, then put the disc in a normal player and try to match that data to the menu items.
It's a tedious process because each playlist can take a while to open and many discs are filled with what appear to be junk playlists. Until now, I've just done it for myself, but it occurs to me I'm probably not the only one going through the trouble.
Seems like a series of HTML tables would be perfect...one table per disc, one row per playlist showing:
Am I crazy?

- Playlist number
- Duration
- Number of chapters
- Audio formats
- Program ("Main Album", "Original Master", "Flatulent Ocelot Remix", etc.)
