A freeware tool called "BulkFilechanger" is a very handy addition to a taggers library of software http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/bulk_file_changer.html After you have done some tag editing you can use it to re-stamp your files with say a 5 second increase on the original time stamp. This causes

I recently changed the option in mp3tag so that the date stamp is not changed when I update tags so that these albums did not show up in New Music. However, you need to make sure that when backing up files you use software that will detect changes in the tags and not just look for changed date sta

Perhaps I was expecting too much for one tag editor to do it all. So maybe I'll take you up on that, once I can find the link again. id3tag seems to hoover up my mp3tag searches. Generally most of my tagging is fine but I have issues with compilations and having downloaded 7.9.0 (which I like) t

Most tag editors like mp3tag has an option to “preserve time stamps “ otherwise the files change date is altered , it changes when you edit the tags . That’s how it’s happens . LMS new list is built solely from the timestms in the files , LMS has no real log over when you actually got your files
