Hi Mike,
I believe I identified one potential issue for the situation.
The file date of the MP3 files seems to be in mobilesheet database differenct from the original file date.
In my case, I did do batch import (On my Desktop PC) where I linked the MP3 files in Excel (CSV) to the songs and kept them in the original place by using a directory joint, prior to the import. After the import it seems that the MP3 file entries in the library hold all incorrect NEW dates.
In effect the files were not even copied as they were already in the right spot at the time I did the CSV import. So no copy was performed as none was needed.
After the first sync between Desktop PC and Tablet the files on the Tablet received new dates while the ones on the PC keep the original dates.
Doing a second sync did not cure the problem. The library seems to hold even a third date which is shown at the conflict release dialog at least for a number of the files (about 20 out of the 6600 MP3 files).
Doing a direct compare of the two MP3 folders between PC and Tablet (using Total Commander - Directory Sync) then I can see that all the files on the Tablet hold NEW dates while all the files on the PC hold the ORIGINAL dates even after several two-way sync transactions.
All in all it sounds like a lot of time stamp fun.
Best regards
Thomas
