Elementi device-list extractor

Exports Elementi's player list: URI, serial, firmware, management URL.

In production since
2026-07-04

Problem

Elementi's "My Devices" panel is the only local home for a fleet's player list, serials and management URLs, but on disk they sit in hidden ndbm/sdbm database files (.pag/.dir pairs) inside a .SPXDAV folder. The visible files are empty markers, so there is no ordinary way to export or audit the list.

What we built

A parser reads the sdbm page-binary format directly (Python's stock dbm.ndbm cannot open these files) and extracts name, serial, device type, model, firmware, protocol, href and management URIs, and status into an aligned table, CSV or JSON, including nested device groups in subfolders with their own .SPXDAV.

Result

A full, exportable player-fleet inventory pulled straight from an engineer's Elementi installation.

Links

No public link. This one runs inside a customer perimeter.
