Title: Error in Titles when converting data from MJ8
Post by: wnossel on May 20, 2003, 03:46:02 pm

I just upgraded to MJ 9.0.175 and had it convert my music library (>20000 titles).

Somehow I lost all my Titles, which were replaced by file names (eg: "Billie Jean" would become "Thriller_06_Billie Jean").   :(

Any idea what went wrong? What can I do to fix the problem.

I still have a back up of my MJ8 data files...

Thanks in advance,
Wladimir

Is it possible the files it happened to aren't present on the system?

MC uses the filename for the name when it's unable to analyze a file. (it reanalyzes everything on an upgrade from 8 to 9)

For a fix, use the "Fill Properties From Filename" tool with something like this:

[Ignore]_[Ignore]_[Name]

Let us know.  And has anyone else seen this?

Thanks!
