Library Conversion - DBUpgrade

Post by Teknojnky »

A few suggestions for the conversion process going forward ...

- first, and most importantly, _ASK_ the user if they wish to import their existing library... not everyone is going to want to go thru however long the conversion process will be, before checking out the new MM 3 functionality.

- Prompt for existing library (or offer to find it automatically)

- display WHICH library is being converted (some people have MULTIPLE library databases) on the dialog

- provide a menu or something to manually import a MM 2.5 database, so that a library can be imported later on after the user is comfortable with mm3

thats all I can remember for now..

Happy to see mm 3 hitting beta!

Another nice feature would be:
-Merging the Alpha and the 2.5.5 database (add the two playcounters, older DateAdded, newer LastPlayed).
