OK, I got a tag editor and updated a file. Then I went in and had Firefly scan the database but it doesn’t pick up the change. How can I make the database see the change?

I’m not sure, but I think you may need to shut down firefly, delete the database and restart it. This will cause the database to be rebuild from scratch. I’m not sure if firefly read all the data on every scan. I think it might just look for new files, and/or maybe one that have been entirely deleted. On my computer, the database is located: /usr/local/var/cache/mt-daapd/songs3.db. It might not be in that exact path on your system, but it should be similar. Or just do a search for songs3.db. (or songs.db, if are using an earlier version.)
