"Rescan collection" won't check if any tags changed

Asked by Sergey Korobov

Some times I find out that part of my files has broke or incomplete tag data. To repair it I use EasyTag.
"Rescan collection" won't find that files and won't reread that data, so I have to remove collection and then refill it.
Is it possible for make rescan check for file modifications and reread tag data if needed?

This is actually a bug in easytag in that it doesn't update the modification time of edited files by default, so Exaile cannot tell they've been edited. There's a setting in Easytag's preferences to change this behavior. As far as I am aware, no other tag editor exhibits this behavior.

Sorry, you are right. Changed the default behavior for EasyTag and it solved my problem.
