So I guess I'm going through a mid-life crisis of sorts. I bought new computer speakers, a new external usb audio whatchamacalit, re-ripped all 350+ of my CDs in FLAC... and finally upgraded to MC15 :). Downside: I've more intelligently file-named the new rips, so a great many of the filenames don't match against my existing (just re-imported) library w/ playlists, etc.
Are there any plugins that can help me repair this mess of broken links, so I don't lose all my playlists, ratings, etc.?
Thanks!

Try Library Tools on a few files. Rename files from properties might work, but do 2 or 3 first.

Thanks for the pointer! Unfortunately, the CD ripping program I used used some intelligent/flexible logic to create directories in a way that didn't map the directory structure of the original rips, and it ended up being too cumbersome to manually do updates-by-albums, so I just decided to go with a clean slate and nuked my entire old library. I figure a fresh start once in a while is a good thing.
With that said, though, Rick.ca, thanks for that link; even if it won't help me (due to the different folder structure), I trust it'll be a handy reminder for many others in this forum.
