Media Center 12.0.51

Jaguu:
This has been a long standing request since the days of MJ8 :-\:

Tag display in AW depending on media types:


* Display audio tags with audio files
* Display image tags with image files
* Display video tags with video files
There are a few exceptions such as artist, album & name, but most tags are very media type specific and it is useless to display them when dealing with another media type.

One possible solution would be in the field definition mask to add a field to specify with which media type a field/tag should be displayed.

As tags are very closely connected to view schemes, another possible solution would be to specify which tags should be displayed with every view scheme (of course inheriting for sub schemes)

To extend it even further, in an view scheme for events, I basically need only the name, event, people, places tag, but in a view scheme artwork I need tags such as gallery, country, style, period etc., tags that are completely useless in the first view scheme. The same with the different tags for standard music and classical music!

Defining tag display in AW in the view scheme definition panel would make an excellent way to really have the tags you really need in AW and leave any obtrusive tags out.  Another good example would be TV series/episodes, audibles etc. They all have very specific tags!

The current implementation is not really an improvement, just kind of a rearrangement,  as several other users pointed out.

I'm not seeing this, could you provide more info?

That's great! But it still doesn't give us back any of the functionality we had with 11, or add any of the additional functionality I outlined above.

I blame you, personally. You showed us a hint of the possibilities with earlier builds of 12, and then you took them away. :P

Uhh... just tried this and it doesn't work. I open the menu, click a field and the menu disappears. This is in .51

Is this in upcoming builds then?

marko:
New caption field
select a file or two, click to edit the 'caption' field, click 'add new tag', mc crashes. It crashes regardless of the files current iptc tag status.

switch to details view in the file list and add a [caption] column. inline editing here adds new captions without crashing.
