Thx ... I do have an option to preserve in my tagger, but that will mess up
file sync to the server (assuming the file size does not change - which it
won't if it's a FLAC). Can't think of a solution, but no big deal.
Thx anyway.

Am asking because tag changes to existing songs seem to send the album
to
the top of the list for me. But I do tend to clear the database and
rescan a
lot.
It uses the file's last modified date/time. 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.
