Because of the way it works, it may be valuable to have a program that can set the last modified time of files. I have one that's a Windows Explorer extension that I sometimes use after editing tags. Some programs automatically preserve the modified time. I think metaflac does this, and IIRC flac.exe also stamps the same modified date/time on flac files as the original WAV.
One (welcome) quirk of the NAS and tagging program I use is that when I edit tags in files stored on the NAS, the last modified time doesn't change, so I don't have to bother resetting them. -- JJZolx Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=21087 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
