Unusual behaviour from Recently Added

If you are running either of the above versions, the problem has some other cause. Which platform are you using to run MinimServer?

The accumulated list of recently added files found in MinimServer rescans is held in a file named added-dates.txt. The location of this file depends on the platform you are using to run MinimServer. If for some reason this file is being deleted after a rescan, this would explain what you are seeing.

I'm running MinimServer 2.2 (update 235) on a Synology NAS (DSM version 7.1.1). I have checked the MinimServer folder for "added-dates.txt" and indeed it only shows the most recent set of files.

I will do an experiment now and add one more CD, and see if the file gets overwritten…

Hmm, something even more strange happened! The file was overwritten, and the new album was added to it… but some other albums I added yesterday disappeared and are now nowhere in "Recently added"! It's modifying the file, but deleting things in the process.
