Upgrade database deletes Album Artist value

[Tsjeh]

When upgrading the DB from 2.5 to 3.0, the Album Artist is not converted. Not a single mp3 contains a Album Artist value anymore. When inserting in MM3 new MP3's an Album Artist is added, so it's a conversion problem, I think.

3.0.0.1069: Database Conversion Issues

PetrCBR stated it will be fixed in Beta 2.

Hello,

Although I never used any beta versions I report my database has been corrupted by uprading from MediaMonkey 2.5 to MediaMonkey 3.0.1.1127 (free version).

It's the ALBUM ARTIST tag that is now corrupt.
It is not empty but its content is any random artist in my database instead of the old correct value.

Have you tried with latest release (build 1131) ? If so, please send me your MM2 database and some examples (petr < att > mediamonkey < dott > com).

Hi !

Yes I did try this version too.
I used the

Code: Select all

dbupgrade mediamonkey.mdb mm.db

code but when I do that, the album artists are randomized.
I tried to send you the mdb but it is blocked as dangerous by the e-mail server do you still want it ? I can zip it maybe…

I went back to 2.5.5.998 which is enough for me (and faster too).

[PetrCBR]

Sure you can mail it zipped.

My ALBUM ARTISTs are still corrupted now when I try the migration to the latest available version (3.0.3.1183) from my working 2.5.5.998 database.

Try to Compact Your Database in MM2 before upgrading. It might do the trick.

This is what I did.
