Revision 956 commits code to change the database schema for the way song
|
|||
|
|
information is stored. This is to fix a previous oversight with
|
|||
|
|
alternative titles (they work and are stored correctly now) and to add
|
|||
|
|
the ability to link media files to songs.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
When updating to this or any later revision **your old database will
|
|||
|
|
crash OpenLP**. To prevent this from happening:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- Move or rename your existing database (in ~/.openlp/data/songs or
|
|||
|
|
~/.local/share/openlp/songs on Linux or
|
|||
|
|
%APPDATA%\\openlp\\data\\songs on Windows)
|
|||
|
|
- Open OpenLP to automatically create a database with the new schema
|
|||
|
|
- Import your old data by selecting File -> Import -> OpenLP v2 Songs
|
|||
|
|
from the menu in the top left of OpenLP
|
|||
|
|
- Find your old database and click Open
|
|||
|
|
- Your data will be imported. **This may take a while with no visible
|
|||
|
|
progress feedback.**
|
|||
|
|
- When the import is finished a message box will say this is the case.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Being able to play tracks with songs is one of the few remaining version
|
|||
|
|
1 features left to implement in version 2 and this change allows us to
|
|||
|
|
start building that feature.
