Title: Rename Is Still Broken
Post by: KingSparta on October 26, 2003, 11:42:29 am

As You can see in this picture Rename is still broken

http://www.spartasoft.com/pub/Rename.jpg

Take Two Files With The Same "Song Name" And "Artist Name" In this case

771228, The Missouri Kid - CBS Radio Mystery Theater

Paths

C:\Program Files\CBSRMT\My Shared Folder\CBSRMT - The Missouri Kid.mp3
C:\Program Files\CBSRMT\My Shared Folder\CBSRMT - The Missouri Kid (1).mp3

then select rename the files with rule [name] - [artist] you will have both files renamed to:

C:\Program Files\CBSRMT\My Shared Folder\CBS Radio Mystery Theater - 771228, The Missouri Kid.mp3

basically both will be linked to the same file.

Then you can then re-import now you also have the original two files so now you have 4 files of the same file.

C:\Program Files\CBSRMT\My Shared Folder\CBSRMT - The Missouri Kid.mp3
C:\Program Files\CBSRMT\My Shared Folder\CBSRMT - The Missouri Kid (1).mp3

and

C:\Program Files\CBSRMT\My Shared Folder\CBS Radio Mystery Theater - 771228, The Missouri Kid.mp3

that two files in the play list are linked to

So what happens when you delete one? Does it delete the file that both are linked to?

Sounds like a nightmare waiting to happen.

It seems the problem is when you use the Clean Option and Image is Checked it will change the "Inside File" To "Internal"

after that MC9 no longer will display the image

I think this is the bug that has been reported where users say that MC9 does not display the image.
