the "new" RMC tool - please help! it's not moving files...
« on: November 23, 2014, 03:31:28 pm »

i'm so excited about the "move non imported files" checkbox...but it doesn't work!

i've tried multiple test files and it simply doesn't move the non imported files.  specifically .cue and .m3u (the .pdf, .txt, .log, etc. are all moving...but they are also imported in my tagging view...)

if there is something i'm missing with this tool please let me know, but i'd really like to "rename" my entire library but obviously not until i figure out this tool

edit:  i should add, i've tried specifically setting the import NOT to import .cue and .m3u (amongst others), since i was in the understanding that it won't move imported files...doesn't work.  i've also tried setting the import TO import .cue and .m3u, and that doesn't change the behaviour

when i import test video files (which have much different asset types) then the tool works great...it moves all the weird stuff.  just the audio folders don't work....

thanks

Same here, for jpg files.  Files I want to move are already in my library sometimes everything seems to follow sometimes not...In this case it's jpg files being left in the original folder.
Entire Folders with jpg will not follow as well.

I'm using 20.0.87

thx

I tried this again, changed the name of my Album therefore Folder name changed and all of the jpg files moved this time....

Tried it once more with another folder and .log .m3u8  got transferred but a .cue file and a sub-folder with jpg files did not.

This folder is in my library and was not removed from my library before (and this option is not checked in my import set-up...If this helps with the troubleshooting...)

Sub folders do not transfer, ever

As to the files, any file NOT imported will be moved

It's a bit quirky but it's also quite powerful.  Took me a bit to get used to it

What about the "Ignore Special Files" in the import window. Does it have something to do with the fact that folder.jpg move or do not move?
From what I read (here: http://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/Library_Settings) I should have this unchecked but not sure with the etc, is for in the (folder.jpg, etc.)...
cue files log files? both?

It would be nice to get sub-folders to move as well..
Thx
