Backups
« on: October 15, 2022, 06:54:00 pm »

Are automatic backups incremental?    If I restore from an incremental will it restore the whole library or just the small increment. Some backups do indeed appear to be incremental  based on the reported sizes. I have no reason for automatic incremental backups.  If I import a new cd or dvd I will manually backup. I do not use play count so no reason to back that up and I'm unaware for any other reason for an incremental backup outside of perhaps settings changes.   At least allow me to turn off automatic backups if they only backup and restore incrementally.  Please explain your backup and restore process more completely.  I love MC but occasionally am baffled by this issue.

The backup is a complete record of your MC database and settings.  It doesn't include the media files themselves.
