CCLI songselect beta change

[John Cegalis]

I was importing a song from the new CCLI SongSelect beta site and discovered they changed their format. I do not know if this will stay this way when the site comes out of beta and at least you are now aware of it.

The old format has the copyright first and the new format has it second. I checked a number of different songs and they are formatted the same.

Old format:

CCLI Song No. 22025

New format:

I notice that the old format has a (c) symbol at the beginning of the copyright line, but the new format doesn't.

Do you know if all songs in the old format always begin with this symbol, so we can use it to distinguish? Failing that, is there anything else in the file that gives a clue as to the version? (I don't have access to Song Select)

[John Cegalis (jseagull1)]

I checked 20 songs I have downloaded over time and they all begin with the copyright symbol.

[Samuel Findlay (sfindlay)]

I see the same for the 50+ songs I've downloaded.

See bug #955477 as well for yet another format to handle.
