Direct song tagging

[JoeNazz]

Maybe a new function can be added to jajuk:

As I hear a song, I would like to tag some keywords to this song directly. After this, I may able to search for this tags. In this way I could find eg. all songs playing a special music instrument.

Thanks!

Hi

This already exists and is named custom properties. Please check http://jajuk.info/index.php/Using_custom_properties , especialy the "Using custom properties the Web 2.0 way " chapter.

Okay, in basics a good function, but the way to tag a song is to long. - click right on title - click on proberties - click on button to open new window for property details - enter tag - click apply - click apply again = 6 steps to enter a tag to a song.

A easier way for example: - click right on title - click "Edit 'exaple'-tag" - enter tag - click apply = 4 steps

Easiest way: - mark a title - starting enter tag - press ENTER

As you have more than 600 tracks, the current way takes too much time...

It's right. A solution could be:

- Add a generic "tag" build-in property on tracks (for others items like directories, albums, artists, the current custom property features should be enough)

- A "tag track" button available from main window command bar and slimbar (and tray ?) that opened a simple Jdialog text editor. The entered text would feed the "tag" property for current played item (of course the button is disabled when nothing's playing). If one or more tags already exist, they are displayed in the text area.

- For multiple selection from table or tree views, the "tag track" menu item should be available from contextual menu.

[To be tested] In addition, a more extreme solution for playing track tagging could be the adding of a tag text area directly in command bar of main window (we have some spaces on upper-left side of it). [Enter] hit would create or change the tag.
