It works. I am using it to backup my library to a linux machine and it works brilliantly, without affecting the windows machine (because it can only possibly change the case). The trick (if you look in the code) is to change the name to a temporary name first:

author name -> _author name -> Author Name

Again, all its doing is ensuring that if the database path resolves at all then it should case match the actual path.

I agree, however, that since it modifies the actual file structure this is an at your own risk tool. I have not had any issues with it and I tested it on a library with >1000 books, but even so.


As for the all lower case or all upper case thing, that really never comes up because I don't have any book titles that are entirely lower case or upper case or any authors that are. I suppose it is an edge case to keep in mind though.
