Modifications are immediately recorded into Prokyon3 MySQL database when Save button is pressed, but the information embedded into your musical file ("tags") are not changed unless you specifically asked for it. This is done via various synchronize commands. These are found when right clicking on the hard disk icon in the lower left window, from normal mode. Several options are available as described below.
In the following, by files, we mean information from the file system and by tags information kept by Prokyon3 into it's database.
Update Only
New files are read and added to tags. Deleted files are removed from tags. No other tags or files change is taking place. As a result, information from some files can still be different from their tags equivalent.
Synchronize
Same as Update Only command. In addition, write modified tags to files and read tags from modified files. As an option, one can prefer tags or files when both have been changed. Both files and tags are modified.
Update and Read tags
Same as Update Only command. In addition, read tags from modified files. As an option one can force read if both files and tags have been changed. Some modified tags may be lost, but files are never modified.
Update and Write tags
Same as Update Only command. In addition, write files from modified tags. As an option one can force write if both files and tags have been changed. Some files info may be lost, but tags are never modified.
