Thx for the feedback. ACC performs a database query and uses the timestamp track column to filter by creation date. The timestamp field is also used by SBS for the New songs menu. For ACC to filter by folder date ACC would have to traverse the complete folder structure and map the folder dates to the actual tracks in them which would increase the catalog generation time but most importantly could become confusing since folder dates do not match the dates in SBS. The file dates are probably changed by tagging software which appears to be the default setting for most of the software around. First thing I do is change the configuration to not alter the file date when modifying tags.
