I have a MC12 library configured with some custom fields. One of them is a field STYLE which is a list (semi-comma delimited). Of course I have thousand of files tagged with these custom fields including STYLE.
MC13 added a new "non-custom" field named STYLE which is a string. So I have to migrate all my files moving styles to a new custom field (SUB-GENRE) which is a list.
But, who knows, may be MC14 will add a new "non-custom" field named SUB-GENRE and I will need to migrate again...
It seems that there is a problem somewhere, no ? Setting custom fields expose you to have to migrate your library and yours files each time a new version of MC is released and to use another (and probably less good) name for custom fields.
Is it really impossible to "unlock" the format of STYLE ?
