Moving my library

Hi, I installed Guayadeque a few days ago and I like it a lot.

I don't have very many .mp3's, but I have a lot of Internet radio stations saved. I'd like to know:

1. Is all this information stored in ~/.guayadeque/guayadeque.db? I like to make backups.

2. If I wanted to install Guayadeque on another distro, can I copy guayadeque.db from one installation to another and have all my radio stations (and whatever else)?

Thanks.

Its better if you copy the whole folder .guayadeque so you copy your defined commands, layouts and everything else. Just be sure the location of the library are the same or correct it before updating in the new distro.

It will also be interesting support for "moving" files or "reorganizing" the library.
If a file has been renamed, Guayadeque "detects" it as a new track while scanning the library (adding the new track and deleting the old). This makes all "statistics" to be lost. If "no changes" in the tags were made, Guayadeque should be able to edit the entries in the DB keeping all stats.

For this functionality use the file browser Rename function please.

Thanks for your help
