Ok, been a while ...so been dabbling with this a bit and made progress but had and still have some issues. I've made a very small "experimental" library with just a couple of hundred files but using all folder directorys from my windows install. This to make sure I'll not miss anything when "going live" so to speak. Replacing the main directory path in notepad++ was pretty straight forward and it worked well. But when controlling files I noticed there where a whole bunch missing the trackstat import data. So t I tracked it down to having__folders_ with the swedish letters Å, Ä, Ö was the issue. I found a shortcut to solve this by ticking the "Find alternative files" in the Trackstat "backup/restore/clear setting tab. And then doing a second "restore from file". But then noticed still files missing :(:confused: ...why should anything be easy ,right? ;-) :-) Tracked it down to it's now ALL FILES with the same swedish Å, Ä, Ö in _the_filename_. Example; MotÖrhead, Blue Öyster Cult, RÖvarkungens Ö, Barn av vÅr Tid e.t.c When looking in two different trackstat backup files and comparing in notepad++ one can see that the windows LMS install and the Linux one seemingly read?/writes? different so surely that's the root of the problem? Example an "Ö" in linux install shows up like this when looking in NP++ ; Blue%2520%25C3%2596yster%2520Cult compared in the windows install; Blue%2520%25D6yster%2520Cult Anyone knows what the main problem is? I know I can do a search and replace in NP++ which probably fix it but I would like to know exactly what the main problem is the better understand and learn. So any ideas are much welcomed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ doggod's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=46431 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=112495
