There is no way in Rhythmbox to refresh renamed/updated tags of songs. The old tag remains.

Bug Description

After changing the names of the ID3 tags the updates don't show up in Rhythmbox. There should at least be an easy graphical way to reload/update the library, or better yet, have it detect changes automatically. I have to do it manually by deleting ~/.local/share/rhythmbox/rhythmdb.xml every time I edit a tag of a song.
