You're not doing this on the files you had moved previously no? Those you first need to re-associate.

Re: Greyed tracks after changing file path slightly
Nope, never moved them - as mentioned, all that happened was that the folder all those particular tracks are in was renamed from:
Tested and good (two spaces) - (two spaces) Fast
to:
Tested and good (one space) - (one space) Fast
BUT, when trying to play a playlist where some of those tracks in the above folder are (in the playlist they still have the tracks detailed with two spaces in the folder names), MM doesn't play them and just turns the tracks grey.
A lifelong MM fan, and just need some help on getting this bit sorted.

That was given above. The Auto-Organize Files was a suggestion for any future moving of files.
When you say Playlists, are you talking about Playlist files on your PC or those in the Playlists node in MediaMonkey's Media Tree?

Re: Greyed tracks after changing file path slightly
Yep, thanks, but am really wanting to solve the current issue.
Playlists node in MediaMonkey's Media Tree.

Then you need to re-associate the files in the Library as outlined before. Either use File > Locate Moved/Missing Files: https://www.mediamonkey.com/wiki/index. ... sing_Files or the Update Location of files in database Addon: https://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewt ... n+database

Re: Greyed tracks after changing file path slightly
Yep, but that isn't clear on those pages - where it says "Collection > Files to Edit > Dead Links" - where do you find 'Collection' ?
Re: Greyed tracks after changing file path slightly
Collection is a node like Music, Video, Classical Music. They are root nodes in the Media Tree: https://www.mediamonkey.com/wiki/index. ... #Interface

Re: Greyed tracks after changing file path slightly
Where do I find the 'collection' node?
Re: Greyed tracks after changing file path slightly
To make things a lot simpler, is there any screengrabs anywhere of all this?
Re: Greyed tracks after changing file path slightly
Did you check the link? Collection isn't an item you'll find in the Media Tree, you'll find nodes that are Collections like Music, Classical Music, Video, etc. based on what you have enabled under File > Manage Collections.

Re: Greyed tracks after changing file path slightly
Just noticed in my particular setup, I am talking about the playlists on 'My Computer' .M3U files Does that information help in this problem at all?
