Author Topic: BUG: Find & Replace may incorrectly rename file and break database & file link  (Read 881 times)

When Rename, Move, Copy is applied on files with only "Find&Replace" turned on, the ";" marks are automatically converted to "_", although they do not appear in Find&Replace.


Moreover, if this is done in "update database to point to new location" mode, the link between file path and the database entry is broken because the filename is changed while the database pointer isn't.

Potentially, this is really bad in files such as video, where the tags are not stored together with the files and reimport is not an option and it could mess up a whole database.

Just to clarify, the old "Find & Replace" works for this function. The problem occurs in "Rename, Move, Copy".
