Then I need information to Automatic Teaser, Make backup of the database, etc.

nelson c said:

That data is stored in the database?.
I imagine that the rating, custom fields, last playing (very useful, now the incremental backups will be much more already fast to not modify files when you play )

Small problem:
Customizable field when I use the "&" in the caption of TrackTool, it shows as a "_"
It also happens in the main window (see attached)

Click to expand...

nelson c said:

Customizable fields should be able to add to the columns of the main list (also MusicLibrary), this would be very useful

Another doubt:
What about tracks that were not migrated to the DB and already contain additional data? When they are reproduced they are migrated to the internal DB?
I have many loose songs that are not in any BD and I do not want to lose the field of last play or the rating
