Does it compare the content of the entire none music files then?

It will only take into account file types that are defined as "Audio / Music" (in Settings).

So other files are not even compared?

Thank you for the link, what is it for? What should I take from the information?

Other files are not compared.

The link shows where to find the settings, file types, where "Audio" is defined.

Ah, OK, thank you.

So I could define there presets? And use a preset for a special mode, e.g. music mode with a preset like "All"?

So each file would be compared and music files would be compared in music mode? How could I do it?

These presets are for your own use (for setting filters and filtering the list) - they don't add new file types to the default ones supported in each mode
