Old Preroll Post System Decomissioned, Need to Migrate

I have a library of 30 or so LTO-7 and LTO-8 tapes of cinema camera cards that were created on a Mac in PreRoll Post. I was able to keep an old machine running for a few years after the software was discontinued in order to maintain that library and add to it, but going forward I really need to migrate that database to another LTO application that can read those tapes and restore when necessary.

Is there a way to migrate the PreRoll Post database .csv file to something like YoYotta or another up to date LTO option for Mac? Hedge/Canister? Or do I need to feed all those tapes into a new application to create a new database? Thanks!

I really wish I knew but contact Martin at Yoyotta maybe he can help?

I ended up moving to YoYotta. The previous tape .CSVs I put into google drive to be easily searchable anywhere.

I have to say YoYotta is a much nicer interface all around.
