Summary0006121: Problems displaying and handling bad imported dates
DescriptionTracks add/rescanned into MM with bad dates will appear as correct dates in MM.
These tracks will also show up and persist in Files To Edit->Unsychronized Tracks.
They will be grouped properly however in Library->Year.

e.g. a date tag of "196" is displayed in Track Panel and Properties Date as "1960" and stored in Songs.Year as "1960000".

This year can not be entered directly, it can only be imported from outside MM.

I probably don't fully understand what's the problem, is it necessary to update tags somehow externally and they scan the tracks by MM? If so, could you please upload a sample track somewhere? Thanks.

As described and shown in the forum link bad dates can exist in files downloaded from the net. That is not the issue.

The issue's are:
1)The dates are displayed incorrectly by MM.
2)The tracks will always show as Unsynchronized Tracks until the date is manually edited.

I have fixed my current data but can get a pre-fix file from backups if needed.

Ok, please upload one of such files, so that it can be tested.

It's all as it should be:
1) There are two fields in ID3v2, 196 and 1960, MM prefers that 1960 in TDRC frame. There isn't anything incorrect about it.
2) It's in Unsynchronized Tracks because the value is 1960 in MM, but 196 in ID3v1 tag. So this is also correct.
