Windows to Mac - / File Structure \

Hi there,

I recently switched to Mac and have just transferred all of my music and playlists across to JRiver. I've restored the library and updated the base path, then had to allow JRiver to automatically rename  in order to allow the tracks to play and show in the playlists. However when I import new songs (not from the Windows import) they have a \ file structure in JRiver, whereas the older Windows/base path changed have a / file structure, is this normal?

Edit: I just realized I'm on 26.0.107, I presumed I was on the latest as purchased MC for Mac recently apologies if the thread could be moved please.

Yes. macOS is Unix. Unix uses / as the directory separator in pathnames:

Ok thanks. The only issue I'm really having after everything is migrated and working is when I setup an autoimport it duplicates the files expontentially everytime I run the import.

To get rid of the duplicates I can delete all files from MC, setup the import and it imports ok and all playlists are good, but when I run autoimport again it duplicates all the files. Thanks for the help. :)

Hasn't happened before, but for a good while now, MC on Mac adds each song again and again each time import is run. Last time I tried is a couple of weeks ago.

Did you start with a library from Windows?
