Hi,
I use MC 21 to manage my TV collection, which is stored on a Synology NAS on my home network. Often, when I make a lot of changes to my library (e.g. editing tags directly, or using "Get Movie & TV info"), the status bar at the bottom will change to say "Saving tag changes (NN remaining)", but it never finishes. It'll just sit there forever, and the remaining count does not change.
I think this is because my NAS can be slow to respond to certain network filesystem requests at times. But regardless of the cause, if I then close MC (including the Media Server), it displays a window stating that some tag changes were not saved, along with a list of the affected files.
Unfortunately, I do not see a way to SAVE this list, nor can I select the text with the cursor and copy it to the Clipboard. So I have no way of knowing what files didn't get their tags updated once I close the window (unless I laboriously write them all down by hand, but who wants to do that???). And I suspect the list isn't even complete, since the window is of limited size and has no scrollbar (I know that at one point there were more affected files than were displayed in the window).
My question is, is there any easy way to find out which files were not updated? Or am I just going to have to go through my entire library and use "Library Tools/Update tags from library" on every episode, if I want to make sure the tags are all correct?
Related suggestion: when MC can't update all the tags before exiting, there needs to be a way to save the list. Or, have MC re-try saving the tags the next time it starts up. Or have a menu option to re-try pending tag changes. SOMETHING...
