Title: how I can preserve file timestamp ?
Post by: drugo on October 06, 2023, 10:42:46

Hi

i'm using aimp 5 v5.11.2436  64bit no installer

1)
can I ask you where is the option to preserve file timestamp (not changed the modification date or creation date of audio files) ?

for example rating a song , or change the tag , or via file info ,lyrics and so on

2) is there an option in AIMP.ini  to disable the check for update?

thanks

1) AIMP does not change a creation date. Modification date MUST BE changed when file is changed.
2) Why you want to disable updates? You can do that by unloading the plugin

Hi @Artem
1) good many software do change it ,and not preserve the modification date ,they change it when rating or editing tags ,like foobar2000 (there is an option in the advanced option "->preserve creation/acces/modification date time when taggin" or musicbee

Yes. I know that some applications has option too keep previous modification date, but I think that bad design. Fileust change it modification date if it was modified
