I found a solution to the trackstat backup. It seems that although a trackstat backup directory is specified, when specifying a file for a manual backup, a full path must be specified for the file as well. It seems strange, and I don't know why, but that seems to work (I found it via the wiki).
However, I still don't understand the way the ratings work, nor how to force a reset to the ratings in the flacs. What is stored where, and what over-rides what in what sort of scan? I couldn't work it out from the wiki, not least because there seems to be another table involved that I didn't find in the wiki article I read (the trackstat_persistent one). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ PasTim's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41642 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=49483 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
