Not updating tags

Hello all,

I have been using foobar and mp3tag for the past 4 years with no problem.
Can't tell when foobar statred not to update tags such as genre, release type.

Every tag seems correct when i look upon with mp3 tag but when it comes to foobar it seems there's no change in tags.
(please see attached images)

I have tried everything (deleted library, deleted index, did full rescan several times)
So far  the only workaround is to change tags within foobar, then it displays everything correctly.

Does anyone have any ideas what could be the problem?

Thanks in advanced,

Maybe you checked "Preserve file modification date" option in MP3Tag?

Sorry for not mentioning earlier but;
Foobar updates all the tags as it is tagged with mp3tag on the fly as soon as i change folder's name on windows explorer.

My bad, i can't seem to find that "Preserve file modification date" option on mp3tag  ::)
