I finally convinced my husband to ditch Winamp and install Media Jukebox. I use MC and do all the music management. He's going to be accessing the same music files on the server, but through his own local library. For now, I set his MJ up to auto-import but not write any changes to tags. But what is the best way to set it up if I want him to be able to edit just a few fields and have his updates imported into my library?

This is one approach:

Another is library server.
Another is independent libraries each watching the same folders. Tag changes from one will be detected by the other.

This is what I am currently doing. But if I want to ensure that he can only edit specific tags, what do I need to do for that? Do I need to edit every single library field in his program and make sure "store in file tags" is unchecked except for the few fields I want him to be able to edit? And would the global setting "General > update tags when file info changes" override this?

I have a few hundred gigs of music on my NAS.
I have one directory for music and another for the library.
Every computer on my network is mapped to M:\ for music, k:\library for the library files.
