Edit track metadata window (Get Info) - Info Tab
iHomeServer™ allows you to manually edit the metadata of any track that has been successfully added to iTunes
To edit track metadata, select one or more tracks from either the
Watch Folder or
iTunes View tabs, right click the tracks and click 'Get Info':
Note that the "Edit track metadata" window, allows you to set the same field values on modify multiple files at once. Therefore, if you select 5 files and change the Artist value to 'My Album', then all files will be updated with the same value. If you wish to make separate changes to separate files, then select 'Get Info' separately on each file, commit the change and then select the next file.
The "Edit track metadata" window is shown below:
 "Auto-fill From" Field
All the tracks that were selected will be available in this drop-down box. When you select an item from the box, the metadata fields on the form will be set to the values from the selected item. This is very useful if metadata/artwork is correct for one track and you want to use those values as a template for other tracks, say, in the same album.
