Recently added items (albums, artists) are correctly listed on Navidrome server (according to last modified file date I guess) but not consistent with Symfonium listing.
Symfonium listing is neither according to last modified nor created date of files. It seems completely random.
Symfonium probably doesn’t use file creation or modification dates, but maybe there’s a value in the subsonic db entries that could be used?
Synced 100%, recently added data still inconsistent.
Update sync also works.
Uploaded logs again during update sync.
Could it be that Symfonium doesn’t use recently added data from the media source (e.g. Navidrome) but creates its own on every source update scan? This might result in inconsistent data for the initial scan, but media added later would probably be consistent…
In 0.52.5 at least, Album.Created is the oldest Birth date of all its songs. If Birth date (time the file was created in the FileSystem) is not available, it uses the time it was imported the first time.
@deluan also if I may ask - I just create a simple read-only docker volume for the media files, and if, obviously, the ‘created date’ isn’t taken over by Navidrome, do I have to provide the media files with a specific volume type, such as, NTFS, or EXT4 in the docker container?
I’ll be happy to move this last issue over to Navidrome forums, if you want.
AFAIK, nothing changed since that message. This behaviour may change in the upcoming Navidrome refactor, which will separate BirthTime from CreatedAt.

I don’t know the answer for that, but it may be worth discussing this with other users. You may get more answers posting this on Discord than as a GH Discussion, but feel free to do both
