I think this is what it was doing before I extended the comparison
rules, such that it also find files that shared the same the end-part
of the url including the last two sub-folders and filename (minus
extension).

eg. if you had a file:

C:\music\pop\led zeppelin\IV\01 - Battle Of Evermore.flac

and had moved it to:

C:\music\ROCK\led zeppelin\IV\03 - Battle Of Evermore.mp3

It would find the stats, and re-attach to the correct url, because
"\led zeppelin\IV\03 - Battle Of Evermore." matched.

I believe this was working when I implemented.  I might be wrong though
;-)  You'll have to try it.

Hence why I suggested the backups and comparisons to test it.
Please let me know how you get on!

Phil
