If I have ALL my tracks on an external HD, I'm still going to have to drag it back and forth between home and work, correct?
My work doesn't like it too much when I clog their database with mp3s.
Ever since I started using this script I only bring my external home when I have done some major editing on tags (more than 100 tracks). I use my mp3 player as the carrier for my database exports and any new tracks which I have added to the library. My normal processes are as follows:
Monday: Do a complete database export, copy the database and all new tracks to the player for transport. Copy the new tracks to the external at work. Overwrite the db with the new db. Run a complete database export immediately after. Check the dead links node to make sure there are no missing files (I usually end up with a few due to file name discrepancies). At the end of the day, run an export sync and then import this at home.
Tuesday - Friday: Do a export sync, copy the database and all new tracks to the player for transport. Copy the new tracks to the external at work. Run an import sync. Check the dead links node to make sure there are no missing files (I usually end up with a few due to file name discrepancies). At the end of the day, run an export sync and then import this at home.
The only thing I do on my work db is play tracks or maybe make some playlist changes, I do not do any tag editing or additions from work.
Hope this helps,
