true.

the FileWare software isn't as advanced as i first thought. still might be enough for my needs though.

iphigenie:
I considered creating a separate topic but I'll revive this one first.

I did win SSFS here ( :-* ) but one thing I noticed is that for synchronising photos and mp3s (i sync between a NAS and an USB portable drive to have 2 copies of my files, and might work on one or the other) it takes a lot of time the way I set it up.

This is because if i go through and tag things, as I am doing as I am trying to clean up/organise things, then SSFS will copy all the images or MP3s back.

So this brings 2 questions
- would the partial sync work in this case? Anyone use it that way?
- if not, is there a sync option that could be "meta information only", or some specialised tools for images or mp3s?

EDIT: doesnt seem that the SFSS partial sync can work in my setup since it seems to require something installed in the remote computer and i just have 2 drives from one computer, one usb the other over the network

off the top of my head - (you do mean the partial file update thingy?)
it works between my pc & my usb stick (with nothing special on it), but it only works for very big files -
sorry, offhand I dont know what size...

actually loooking at the website, he doesnt say, kindof silly really

It works for me with a 200MB surfulater file but that doesnt help you any :(

iphigenie,

I had the same question. I alter the tags of lots of oggs and would like to update only those that have changed; and if the delta copy moved just the tags, so much better. Unfortunately, Tobias said it's beyond SFSS's capabilities. A bit of a bummer.
