How Does Astiga Handle Renamed Files?
I spent some time renaming audio files to meet my preferences. I also updated the playlist to reference the new file names. I was assuming that I needed to sync my library after all the renaming was complete. However, the status email after the sync showed zero changes.
Here are the original file names:
El Huervo\2014, Daisuke [Single]\02-Daisuke (Brahm Remix ft. Shelby Cinca).flac
El Huervo\2016, Vandereer\06-Envisage (Featuring Brahm).flac
El Huervo\2017, Le Temps\01-Le Temps (Featuring Brahm).flac
Here are what I renamed the files to:
El Huervo\2014, Daisuke [Single]\02-Daisuke (Brahm Remix feat. Shelby Cinca).flac
El Huervo\2016, Vandereer\06-Envisage (feat. Brahm).flac
El Huervo\2017, Le Temps\01-Le Temps (feat. Brahm).flac
I renamed a bunch more with similar changes. I am a little confused on why a sync would not show these changes. I did delete all playlist and re-import them again to reflect the changed file names.

Your changed file locations are showing on your SFTP connection, but not your pCloud one. Your SFTP connection is auto syncing, so it might be the sync log where the changes were shown has been overwritten.
Hmm. I performed the manual sync right after I deleted and uploaded the changed file names. I then performed a sync right after doing this, and it did not show that a sync was already running. I successfully performed the sync right after the upload with no change showing.
We don't cache folder contents for SFTP so that can't be the cause...
Taking the "Vandereer" track...
On pCloud the last update was seen at 2024-11-02 05:54:08
For SFTP the last update (and also the created timestamp, because this was the changed file) seen was at 2025-01-16 10:10:18 (yesterday morning).
Anyhow - is it now working as you want?
So I need to disable auto sync for my expectation to work? I am confused on what is going on and what astiga is doing. This used to work in the past as I expect.
I just disabled auto-sync from SFTP.
I will try this again to see what happens.
