rhythmbox

I want to migrate Rhythmbox from one computer to another. I have different usernames in both the computers.

I will need to carry music files, covers, playcounts, ratings, playlists, etc.

Merely copying music files and .local/share/rhythmbox does not work (I guess because Music locations are different on both the computers).

What is the best way to achieve this? I will at least like to carry ratings and playlists.
