Description:
Try to import soundfile metadata from external medadata source in following order:
- try to import from XML metadata file name "soundfilepath.XML" in the same directory as the soundfile. If this file exists, all types of metadata are imported (segments, saved parameters, …)
- try to import from SD0 file named "soundfilepath.SD0" in the same directory as the soundfile (generated by earlier S_TOOLS-STx versions). If this file exists, the segment list and the soundfile attributes are imported.
- try to import from soundfile segment list from soundfiles generated with S_TOOLS 5. In this case only the segment list can be imported.
- no metadata available. An empty segment list is created.
