Sync copies a number of files every single time

Post by phit42 »

Hi,
I sync a large amount of files onto a USB drive for use in my car. Out of these, around 200 files are copied over every single time.
I can see them correctly on the drive after each sync and play them. Nevertheless MM overwrites them again next time.
Although this is not a critical issue, it takes its toll on the USB drive (and I guess in other sync's as well that I do).
Thanx.
MMW 4.1.28.1905 (usually frequently updated so might be newer by now)
MMA Pro 1.3.1.0701 (automatically updated so might be newer)

First update to the latest release. To confirm, sync is re-syncing about 200 files? It is removing the old copy and re-syncing it back to the drive? Are you sure it is re-syncing the file, or maybe it's just updating metadata? If re-syncing, could those files have been updated in MediaMonkey since last sync?
