<![CDATA[Edit database manually]]>I have found a way to export lastplayed timestamp and playcount from my old Media Monkey database. No i have tried to update the Strawberry database with this data via a standard SQlite editor. The changes are written to the database, but i didnt see them reflecting in the GUI. Is there any thing i have todo? When i edit the strawberry database, i use a SQL like this:

UPDATE `songs` SET `lastplayed` = 1631919400, `playcount` = 4 WHERE `artist` = "Some Artist" AND `album` = "Some album" AND `track` = 5 AND `title` = "some title";

The SQL seems to be fine and the date in the expected format (Unix timestamp), but i get 1.1.1970 in the GUI. The playcount is updated. Do i miss something?

I have to refresh the opened playlist. Then the imported dates are visible. If someone needs the export SQL from Media Monkey to Strawberry:

SELECT SongPath, Artist, Album, AlbumArtist, TrackNumber, DiscNumber, SongTitle, PlayCounter, strftime('%s', datetime(LastTimePlayed + 2415019.0)) as lastplayed
FROM Songs
WHERE LastTimePlayed > 0;

Media Monkey uses juliandate to save the date. I export the other fields additionally, to match the fields in Strawberry and find the correct songs. Form the returned entrys, i create the above UPDATE statement for Strawberry:

UPDATE `songs` SET `lastplayed` = 1631919400, `playcount` = 4 WHERE `artist` = "Some Artist" AND `album` = "Some album" AND `track` = 5 AND `title` = "some title";
