[Addon] Track History Transfer

[fetzenschaedl]

Track History Transfer seamlessly migrates listening history and metadata from old or duplicate tracks to upgraded versions (e.g., MP3 to FLAC upgrades, remasters, or duplicate cleanups).

Key Features
Smart Matching & Control: Automatically pairs source and target tracks using a score-based system (duration, title, track number) across mixed selections. A Confirmation Dialog allows manual drag-and-drop pair adjustments before any changes are made.

History & Statistics: Transfers Play Count (optional merging instead of overwriting), Last Played, Skip Count, Date Added, Rating, and precise individual play timestamps.

Tags & Library Data: Supports flexible transfer of standard tags, classifications, 10 Custom Fields, playlist memberships, and external artwork.

Batch Tools: Includes a dedicated Lossy → Lossless Mode for mixed album selections and a library-wide Find Duplicate Albums scanner.

Optional Source Cleanup: Once confirmed, old files can have their stats cleared, be removed from the database, or be permanently deleted.

Setup and usage details are available in the bundled readme.md.

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
This add-on permanently modifies or deletes track data, statistics, and files; incorrect usage can result in data loss. Having been tested only on a limited scale, a full backup of your MediaMonkey database is strongly recommended before use—especially prior to batch operations or source cleanup options.

The Playlist transfer feature did not remove the source track from the Playlist using right click copy and paste functions on MediaMonkey 2027.

Thanks for the feedback. I have submitted a new version, with the option to remove the source tracks from the playlist after the transfer, plus some bugfixes that came with the new option and a bugfix to the direct transfer option. Hopefully this fixes the issue.

Addon update approved. Check find updates.

Working great.

It would be nice if the Addon can trigger a forced Volume re-Analysis to get a new Album Level value. As files have been removed from the Album (at least this is how I'm using this), it would be nice if the Album Level gets recalculated (overriding the MediaMonkey setting to only do this with unknown values).

This looks like the exact thing I've been looking for, particularly now that I'm trying to upgrade my mp3 collection to flac files.

One problem: it appears that the download like in your OP is invalid/broken/taken down and I cannot find it by searching or browsing the MM add-on library. Is there a new download link where I could try this add-on?

Hello,

I submitted a new version with an option to analyze the volume of the target tracks after the transfer, both in the optionspanel and the transfer dialog, also an option to force re-analysis if "only analyze unknown" option is enabled in the optionspanel.

I edited the support link for the addon, and it seems like it needs to be approved again. Since I just submitted a new version, maybe wait a few days and check back again.

Hi,
Just note your addon is approved at https://www.mediamonkey.com/addons/brow ... anagement/

Happy Monkeying all!!!!

Wow. This works perfectly. You/the author have really made upgrading my mp3s to flac effortless with this addon and I cannot thank you enough.

As well as this addon works, it's still a great idea (as noted) to do a backup of the database and be careful in deleting the files you no longer need. It may be worth noting that, if you reimport the old files into MM, they still have the same database entries as before (unless I'm missing something). Nothing seems to be deleted off of the old files so if you don't delete them from the disk it appears to be relatively easy to bring them back in. Just what I've noticed so far.

Also, if there's anyway to give the author a cup of coffee/tea, I would be happy to do so!
