"Recent" sorting

[tarnkappe]

In which case will this happen? In most cases people either will rip there CD or buy an album as download in an online shop. (Ok, maybe they download an album illegally somewhere).

In case of ripping the creation times are all the same. So no problem here.

In case of downloading tracks, the original creation time (e.g. when the shop copied the files to there servers) could still be obtained. But it is very likely that a user copies the tracks to the NAS (or library) and the creation date is altered. Isn't it?

The biggest problem could be if someone has an existing music library and starts to use minimserver on it without touching the files somehow. In this case "recently added" would not mean recently added to minimserver, but recently added to the library directory.

If different users have different practices in handling there music collection a configuration option for the behaviour of minimserver would probably be the best. But certainly this makes the implementation more complex again. And algorithms handling dates and times are often very complicated, I find.
