Moving from Linux Mint to OPENSUSE. Copy and move Database
-
How can I copy and move the music library data or database over from LINUX MINT to OPEN SUSE>
Will the location of this data be the same in both OS's.Rescanning my large music library has taken me 5 days in the past and want to avoid this.
Any help please.

@herculepirate Part of that will depend on where you have your actual music files stored. In Mint the database files are located in ~/.local/share/strawberry/strawberry and the configuration in ~/.config/strawberry. As long as the music files themselves are stored in the same location on the Suse computer (typically in
$HOME/Music), you should be able to just drop those directories in your new home directory.How big is your library? That seems like an insanely long time to read generate the database. I have around 4k albums and it takes less than an hour to do a full rescan.
