What Does 'Unknown' in Summary Column Mean?

Post by FriendlyPat »

Hi,

I am completely new to Media Monkey and am struggling a little with the learning curve. I have what I think is a very simple question but I don't seem to be able to find an answer. I am hoping that someone can provide an answer and also point me at the best place I should be looking for answers as a complete beginner.

My question is: what does the underlined, bold 'Unknown' label mean in the Summary column? I am looking in the Art and Details view. After the Artwork column is a column called 'Summary'. This contains an underlined, bold 'Unknown' label (with an upward curving arrow next to it), followed by the title of the album, followed by the star rating. I have now added three complete CDs and all shown 'Unknown' for this label.

Any help and advice would be very much appreciated.


Kind wishes, Patrick

That means that the field displayed has no value. What field is displayed is set under Tools > Options > Playback Rules per Type with Art View.

Is the field showing unknown the Album Artist field?

Hi,

Yes, I played about for a while and that is exactly what it is displaying. Once I figured that out, it was easy to fix.

Thank you for the reply.


Kind wishes, Patrick
