Clean file properties appends XXXX-01-01 00:00 to year field
« on: January 12, 2008, 09:01:09 am »
When running 'clean file properties', MC appends -01-01 00:00 to the year in the year field, i.e. for Talking Heads 77' the field is altered from 1977 to 1977-01-01 00:00. In some places of the app, that entire string is displayed.

Is there away to clean away and revert to only the year, i.e. plain and simple 1977?

This is for a disc that has the year field of 2004. I don't need the time in that field, just the YEAR would be fine with me.

So THAT's what's doing it!

I have a lot of files this has happened to and couldn't find any rhyme or reason to it.
Try deleting the "day" field for all of them.

This will be fixed in the next build. Setting the day field to 0 will correct the tracks that have changed.
