.XML file and track identification
 

My xml file got messed up. So I am trying to used a old one and update it. But my filenames have changed. So whenever I rescan after loading my old .xml file all the info is lost.

Here is a compareison of the old and new. The '<key>Location</key><string>file:' is different. Also what is diff. is the <key>Track ID</key>.

Which does Winamp go by to identify the song in the .xml file, the track id or location string? Which do I need to change so when it rescans it will keep the song information?

Here's a sample of song info, one from the old and one from the new:
