Backing up the music database #1
How do I backup my music database?
There are two ways to backup the music database:
- Copy the *.DAT files from folder C:\SQDATA\MUSIC.
- From the 'Edit Music Database' menu, select 'Tools | Export (dump database)'.
This creates a textual listing of the database, which can be imported into CSDS
via the 'Tools | Import' function.
Neither of the above ways actually backup your music (.mp3 or .wav) files.
You must do that separately.
You should also backup the Genre Flags table:
- C:\SQDATA\MUSIC\FLAGS.DAT
