Hello!
I am encountering an issue that was not present on previous versions (not sure when this appeared):
When changing the directory path of the library, using the "Find and Replace" option of "Rename, Move, & Copy Files", some files show as <file not supported>. I did not go through all of them, but it seems to be files generated from the main audio file by a .cue sheet.
Previous versions of JRiver were able to move those perfectly, now they are stuck in the original path.

I don't see an easy way anymore to change the full location of the media library.

I have attached a screenshot showing the issue.

The change was intentional.

33.0.24 (9/19/2024)

Changed: CUE files no longer process in the Rename, Move, & Copy Files tool because it would break the links.

I think because there are multiple files in the CUE it broke the others if you moved just one.

Thanks Matt for the answer,

It would be good however to have a way to relocate the entire library without having to reimport the files that are missed (I would like not to change the imported date stamps, etc.), which is the purpose the "find and replace" function originally.

I've looked for other options, but the .xml exported library can be edited but not re-imported.
The Library backup (zip file) is not editable.

Do you see a workaraound?

Edit: not sure I completely follow what motivated to change on version 33.0.24, since in the example above, there are physically two files in the folder: the "CDImage.ape" and the "CDImage.cue". Replacing the path for both of those physical files  - and not the virtual ones from the cue sheet - would solve the issue.

The catch is the CUE files import like this:
D:\Data\Media\Music\Test Files\CUE\Dave Matthews - Some Devil.ape;1
D:\Data\Media\Music\Test Files\CUE\Dave Matthews - Some Devil.ape;2
etc.

So there's a pile of entries. If you move one, it breaks all the rest if you didn't also move them.

Maybe the tool could be expanded to grab all the links when moving a single?

Thanks.

Yes definitely, if this can be implemented
