In the TrackStat backup files, you have the file path like this:
Code:
--------------------
<url>file%3A%2F%2F%2Fdata%2Fmusic%2FBailter%2520Space%2520-%2520Solar.3%2F08%2520-%2520Locher.flac</url>
--------------------
It is 'encoded' (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percent-encoding), there
are online tools like 'this' (https://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/dencoder/)
In this example, one would simply replace every instance of
Code:
--------------------
%2Fdata%2Fmusic%2F
--------------------
with e.g.
Code:
--------------------
%2Fnewdata%2Fmusic%2F
--------------------
which on Linux you can do with
Code:
--------------------
sed -i -e 's/%2Fdata%2Fmusic%2F/%2Fnewdata%2Fmusic%2F/'
trackstat_scheduled_backup_20200627.xml
--------------------
Notepad++ should work as well.
Also, make sure the file is in UTF-8 encoding, and not some weird
Windows encoding (Notepad++ probably can show / convert file encodings)
