Yup, as Anthony said you can copy the Banshee folder to a different
location to avoid losing playcounts, ratings, playlists, etc. Renaming
the current folder will make Banshee automatically create a new folder,
so something like: `mv ~/.config/banshee-1 ~/.config/banshee-1-bak`
should work.
One problem with this approach (correct me if I'm wrong) is that
although Banshee will reimport all the music correctly (losing play
counts and ratings I guess, but I don't use either), it won't reimport
Podcasts that are in your library but that are gone from the RSS file.
This happens fairly often with popular podcasts (i.e. This American
Life) where, to keep bandwidth use down, only keep the latest episode
available. All other podcasts still available need to be re-downloaded.
So, if you delete your banshee files, there's no way to get those old
podcasts back into your banshee podcast library but to import them as
Music.

Copy it somewhere else first... then delete it so if it doesn't work
you haven't lost anything. Sorry if you had already considered this
as obvious.

Is it possible something in the old Banshee database may have
carried over?
I've been using this database since 1.6 I believe. I don't like just
deleting databases but if it will fix a problem I'll give it a shot.
