Hi all, anyone can help explain how continuous monitoring of a folder works ?
Until v5 has Discogs support, I rip my CDs using v5 (FLAC), then I fire up v4 MM (separate install & DB). V4 autoscans that folder, finds the new files, and then Iuse v4 to query Discogs. That plugin writes the metadata to the files.
I was expecting v5 to notice the file changes and rescan, as v4 writes to the files but it doesn't seem to until I run a manual rescan. So I have to remember to do it.
I have the folder set for At Startup and Continuously.
MM5 will rip into a sub-folder, but I presume selecting the parent folder should work.
Manually re-running does pickup the changes.
It's not a major issue, just an annoyance
v5.0.3.2619 on Windows 10
