horstepipe 356 Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Hey If you refresh metadata for strm files, the media info is being deleted and the file gets reprobed on the next first playback. I'd like to regurlary refresh all metadata to get current ratings, so I'm looking for a way manually backing that info up and restoring it. Taking a look at the library.db, this info seems to be stored at the MediaStreams2 table. Would it be safe backing up that table, do a full metadata refresh on all items and restoring that table again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37008 Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 HI, you're better off just porting the entire database if this is important to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke 37008 Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Sorry I misread. Then to answer your question, yes, I suppose in theory, but this has never been tried before. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
