Outline · [ Standard ] · Linear+ re-hashing files after restart emule

From somewhere i download archives (scene archives).. i extract the avi out of the archive and put the video-file in my shared folder of emule plus.. mule hashes it and everything is still normal..

untill i restart my mule (out and on again) or click on 'reload' in 'shared files'-tab.. then my mule starts hashing the same files again.. while i didnt change the filename or anything, so the files get the same hash-id again.. my mule just seem to forgot i was sharing those files..

i dont know what the problem could be untill today.. now i saw this.. the scene-group made the files on a pc with the wrong date: files are made on 1-1-2098 *no time*..

this is the only difference i could find.. could this be the problem that my mule rehashes files? or is it something else?

What will happen if you correct file date?

Confirmed

Try Attribute Changer from here: http://webplaza.pt.lu/~rpetges/
Set the date of last change to 01/01/2039 or higher and eMule Plus will rehash that file every time You click reload or restart.

but will leave these releases the way they are (it could be that the hash changes..) but will keep it in mind for the future

EDIT:

The hash of a file doesn't change when You alter its date.
You can test it with a small testfile before You perform the change on a release file.
