8.7 Viewing and Editing Track Meta Information
Most of the audio file formats that can be used with CROSS DJ allow the storage
of meta information about the file, like the artist or the release date of a track. You
can view and edit this meta information in either listview or in the Info panel of
the browser.
CROSS DJ can write the changes you make either to the collection file only, or to
the collection file and to the tags of your audio track. You can configure whether
CROSS DJ shall write the changes to the file tags or not on the Preferences/Gen-
eral dialog by checking or un-checking the option Do not save changes in Tags.
To make changes in Listview double-click the field you want to edit, enter your
changes and press (¢). Some of the fields in Listview provide a listbox where you
can select one of the options. Other fields, like the audio format, are static, and
cannot be changed.
another option is to use the Info panel of the browser to see all available informa-
tion about a track and to make changes to a track. Select the file you want to edit
and click the Info button in the tool dock at the right side of the browser area.
