Hi
I have been looking for this issue , and I am surprised I could not find any other thread about it, as I have been having this issue since years with all versions of mediamonkey!.. I am using the latest 4.1.17
What happens (always) is when I input data to the db (edit tags / update track properties), individually or batch (specially videos), there are always some records (tracks) for which the input data has not been saved : using "edit properties" or using "filename to update tags".
I am NOT looking to save fields into the FILE tags (as I know this is not possible for mkv videos for instance=, I just want that the input info is actually saved in MM DB...when I want to browse later.
For example: if I pick a folder, select all of their files (let's say mkv and mp4) - edit proporties - change type to "music video" and let's say input "artist" and "album artist" strings and hit save. it seems to have saved....
but later when i browse by such artist, some tracks will be missing, and if i go to unkown artist, i will find SOME of the formerly tagged tracks: untagged (IE it randomly saves some records and others not)..
I wonder if this has anything to do with SQLite, maybe this database is not reliable and does not actually perform the operations in all the lines? I do not know as it makes no sense at all .. but as I said I have had this issue always...
and the appaling patchwork has been re-updating the fields... most of the times the second time the save works.. som other the third time etc, unitl it finally saves
is there any suggestion?
thanks
