The ultimate goal is indeed to have any sort of change result in the auto-rescan turning your library into the same thing you'd get via a wipe & rescan. So if you find something that doesn't auto-rescan properly, please file a bug with detailed info so I can create a test case. Info such as the before/after versions of a file, or descriptions of the before/after directory structure, etc, are extremely helpful. _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
