Even though the plugin is named "Duplicate Detector" the intention with it was actually to test technologies that were able to find exact matches. The intention was to use these technologies later on to make it possible to retag/rename/move files and still make the statistic data such as ratings, play counts survive a full rescan. It was just easier to test the technology in a duplicate detector plugin than implementing the real thing directly. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=81679 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
