After this, you should be able to: 1. Shutdown LMS and take a backup of the persist.db and library.db files in the LMS Cache directory (just as an extra precaution in case something goes wrong) 2.

After the restore operation is finished you will get a log entry in the LMS server.log saying that restore operation is finished.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Trackstat: Unrated tracks appear as rated with 1 star
Do you know if you have musicbrainz tags on your music files ? MusicBrainz change philosophy a couple of years ago so the same song on multiple albums got the same identity and this can cause duplication of entries in the TrackStat database tables. There is an "Enable musicbrainz tags" option in TrackStat that can be used to disable the musicbrainz related logic if this is what's causing the problem. To get rid of the duplicates, I think it should be enough to use the "Remove all data" option in TrackStat settings page in the "Backup/Restore/Clear" section and after that restore the TrackStat backup. The restore process happens in the background and can take some time but it should only import one of the duplicate entries. If you want to be sure you can get back to the current situation it might be a good idea to shutdown LMS and take a backup of the library.db and persist.db file in the LMS Cache directory before you clear and restore the TrackStat data.

Thanks. Now that you've release 0.4 the issue is resolved anyway. It hasn't appeared here yet, but I guess I'll get the update message soon.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Trackstat: Unrated tracks appear as rated with 1 star
I have managed to open the latest trackstat backup file in excel (just drag it into excel!). It takes a couple of minutes until Excel displays the 20 MB xml file as a table, but it does. And what I see is that although I have about 9000 songs in my library, the trackstat database has more than 65000 entries. Many songs have multiple entries (I saw one that is represented 250 times!) with the exact same data. From what I can see when I look at the file size of the nightly trackstat backups, this magic increase of songs happens incrementally every day as the file size increases between 50 and 300 kb every day, even on days when I was on vacation and not a single song had been played, added or deleted. So let me modify my question once again: if I ever manage to clear up that mess manually in Excel, will trackstat be able to re-import the resulting xml file? And, of course: how can the duplication of tracks in trackstat be avoided in the future? *Server*: LMS 7.7.3 on a ReadyNAS Ultra 2 *Players*: Radio, Touch, Duet (Receiver & Controller), Boom, Squeezeplayer on iPad 2 *Remote control apps*: iPeng (iOS), SqueezePad (iOS), Squeezecontroller (Android) *Important plugins*: Trackstat, Spicefly Sugarcube, Lazy Search Music, Switch Player, SmartMix, Custom Browse chaug's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=47641 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=102245 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Trackstat: Unrated tracks appear as rated with 1 star
OK, I need to qualify this and perhaps change my question. I said that I have no more unrated songs because when I selected Trackstat -> Not rated -> Not rated songs in the webinterface, I got an ampty list (after almost a minute of waiting). It turns out that that list is not empty but the connection to the server timed out or sumething. I noticed that there are unrated songs since they show "Unrated" in their context menu. So I ran the "Trackstat -> Not rated -> Not rated song" thing again, this time on my SB Touch which had the advantage that it actually told me that it lost connection to the server and allowed me to reconnect. After several tries it did reconnect and showed me a list of unrated songs. However, that list is rather strange, since 90 percent of the first 200 entries are the same song. In addition all of the songs have a playcount of 2 or more, which doesnt make sense since I have Trackstat Autorating turned on ever since I use it so that there should not be any unrated song with a playcount greater than 0. So, in other words, I might say that my strackstat database seems to be in a mess and I wonder if there is any way to edit it manually, e.g. in an excel file or so in order to fix at least the most obvious errors? *Server*: LMS 7.7.3 on a ReadyNAS Ultra 2 *Players*: Radio, Touch, Duet (Receiver & Controller), Boom, Squeezeplayer on iPad 2 *Remote control apps*: iPeng (iOS), SqueezePad (iOS), Squeezecontroller (Android) *Important plugins*: Trackstat, Spicefly Sugarcube, Lazy Search Music, Switch Player, SmartMix, Custom Browse chaug's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=47641 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=102245 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Simply copying the files should work if, and only if you are also applying the same access permissions to the files being copied. Often LMS uses its own user name and group.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Trackstat: Unrated tracks appear as rated with 1 star
I just realized that I don't have any more unrated tracks although there should be hundreds or even thousands of them. It looks like all previously unrated tracks are now rated with 1 star (on a 10 star scale or 0.4 on the five star scale). The problem with this is that I can no longer exclude low rated tracks from playing (because many - if not most - of the low rated tracks are not "bad"). I suspect that the issue might be related to me changing the rating scale from 5 star to 10 star a couple of weeks ago, but I'm not sure. In any case, I'd like to tell trackstat to change all 1 star ratings to unrated. Is it possible? *Server*: LMS 7.7.3 on a ReadyNAS Ultra 2 *Players*: Radio, Touch, Duet (Receiver & Controller), Boom, Squeezeplayer on iPad 2 *Remote control apps*: iPeng (iOS), SqueezePad (iOS), Squeezecontroller (Android) *Important plugins*: Trackstat, Spicefly Sugarcube, Lazy Search Music, Switch Player, SmartMix, Custom Browse chaug's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=47641 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=102245 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
