For each track a full pathname is stored in the database. When the directory
containing all music files is moved to a new location (for instance music
is stored on a new disk) then it is possible to rename the base path of the
files with this function. When you start this function, you get a dialog to specify the path names.
Specify in the dialog the original location and the new location. Example: Your music file locations were as follows: C:\Music\Madonna - Hard Candy\01. Candy
Shop.mp3 Now you moved all your files and paths look like: X:\Music\Madonna - Hard Candy\01. Candy
Shop.mp3 Then you should enter the following locations, to
redirect the track references in the AlbumPlayer database correctly: Original
location: C:\Music New location: X:\Music Note: For each path to a track file that needs
to be renamed, first it is checked if the path exists, if not,
the path will not be renamed! So if you do not specify the redirect locations
correctly, the path names will not be renamed. More database maintenance see here: Preferences -
