[Banshee-List] Change Path to Music Files



I've transferred my Banshee database to a new PC, and the track listings look
correct when I start up Banshee.  However, the old directory and path
information assigned to each track are no longer what I want.  The old path
is for an external drive, but I've copied all of the recordings to the
second drive on my PC.  All recordings for my library are in the same
directory.  (Yes, I can still attach the external drive to access them.)

How do I tell Banshee the new location of the tracks?  I saw a posting
somewhere suggesting that sqlite3 can be used to change all the paths for
all the tracks, but I don't know how to use that database.  Is there an
easier way to reassign the directory name?  I'm afraid to try "Rescan Music
Library" because the last time I tried that (for a different reason) I lost
all of the track properties that I had laboriously entered by hand.  I have
over 3,600 tracks in the database, so changing them one at a time would be a
real chore.
