Changing field case

<< < (2/2)

MusicHawk:
This might be related to what appears to be a bug, reported in a different thread, where MC doesn't see a capitalization change as a data change, so it fails to update. Presumably there is code to not update the database unnecessarily, and presumably this code is doing a case-insensitive comparison, inappropriately.

I found other data-comparison bugs, and all seemed to me to have recently appeared. Another involves incorrect comparison of List-type field content, coupled with MC not saving the changed order of items in the field.

frankie:
Thanks man, so I take it there ain't any fix for this at present?

MusicHawk:
When I really need MC to save a record that it won't save, my workaround is to temporarily change it to something else (add a 1 at the end or something, or add an item to Keywords), then change it back to what I really want. But because it requires actually changing the data, it's possibly not useful for changing case of multiple records unless done with great care.

Again, I'm presuming it is a bug unless someone finds a different explanation.

frankie:
do you perhaps know if this porblem is fixed in Media Center 15?
