Title: adding 'comment' field to visualizations
Post by: fluffybunny on December 29, 2002, 10:37:08 pm
Hi all,

I've been using MJ for months now and I don't think I could live without it. I have been busy creating visualisations and I pipe an AV feed from the PC around the house (kind of my own, in-house MTV).

However, I've noticed that whilst I can get most of the data fields into a visualization (NAME, ARTIST, CUSTOM_1 etc) I don't seem to be able to get the COMMENT field happening.  I see also that NOTES is a valid field but I don't know where the NOTES data is drawn from. Is there a list somewhere of valid fields and where to store the data?

Thanks in advance,

FB

FB,

You are correct. COMMENT field is not supported by visualizations. I'm not sure why it was omitted, but we will include it in the feature.

Nikolay

Thanks Nikolay.

If it helps, the CHANNELS field also does not seem to work.

There is also a NOTES field which is not in the list you mention (http://www.musicex.com/mediajukebox/DevZone/Metamorphis.html) but which will retrieve notes stored in the MP3 tag (accessible from the right-click menu but not viewable in the spreadsheet).
