foobar2000 1.4 does not add files from a monitored NAS volume to the library

When moving files from a local, unmonitered disk to a NAS (Synology), monitered volume using the foobar Move operation the application does not add any of the files to the library. Sometimes the first file of an album makes it, the rest not.

I've read in the forum that there are problems detecting content changes over SMB that happened *outside* of foobar but why does it not add the files it has full control over?

Closing foobar, restarting it and waiting a little will add the files to the library during a catch-up scan so technically and from a security point-of-view everything is OK.

Any pointers?

It has problems tracking changes over Samba (not necessarily SMB) that happen while foobar2000 is running as well.

Being a developer myself I don't understand what there is to track in that scenario:

The source and target filename are known.
The move operation operation succeeds.
The file can be added to the library.

I must be missing something...
