Title: Managing Library Fields - Bios & Members
Post by: drc on January 20, 2011, 05:43:17 pm

I'm trying to create/manage 2 fields in MC.

The fields are: 

Biography & Members (Group0 Members).

The data is in MP3 tags Editor, but I can't field a field in MC to match up...

Is there a tutorial which shows the current fields that match up MC.  Beside the standard fields, Artist, Album, Composer, etc... I've found it difficult to add a custom field.

If anyone knows a simply was to accomplish this (adding a Biography & Members field), I'll pass on the tutorial.

Thanks

Just create the fields using:
Tools/Options/Libraries & folders/Manage library Fields
Make sure the fields have the exact name as the other software and be sure to match case.

Once this is done the tags can be edited/viewed in both programs.

Sometimes its difficult to find the exact name.
I had a bit of an annoyance when i wanted to add "Orig. Artist" because the actual field name was "Original artist"
