Questions / Keeping ALL tags (rate, playcounts, date added...) when replacing MP3s by FLACs
« on: September 24, 2023, 11:13:55 AM »
Hi
Ssd/hdd prices've been dropping last years, I'm actually giving my preference to lossless files over MP3s since storage space isn't a money issue anymore.
I get every new piece of music in lossless, and I try to upgrade all my old albums to that format too. But I don't know how to do this "cleanly"...
Is there a way to replace existing MP3s files in my collection by their FLACs homonyms, and keep all the tags (including playcounts, date added...) in the same move ? That way, my old albums will stay exactly the same in my collection, except that they will be sourced to FLACs files instead of MP3s ones.
