Title: No library sync for pictures?
Post by: HE on April 24, 2018, 07:04:27 pm
I tried to sync two MC24 libraries. The audio files worked but the pictures did not. Bug or feature?

Can you give some more detail?
You are modifying a tag on a picture on a MC client connected to a library server and the tag doesn't update on the server?
Linux on both machines??

Hi Bob, thank you for asking. I tried to sync the lib of a MC library containing audio files and photos running on a Mac with the empty MC library on a Raspberry. I wanted to backup my existing library while duplicating it to a separate system. So no tag editing is involved... But the pictures failed to be copied

Where are the actual files located?

The files are on the local hard disk drive of the mac in the Folder "Documents".

I don't use it that way but the library sync does the library (which is the database), not the files.

Ok, but there is the option "Merge files" in the sync library settings dialog which made me believe  :-\ ...

Where are you seeing that option? I can't find it...
