4.8.2 Browse
The Browse function allows you to browse
all files from the server according to general criteria you specify. It has
similar function as the search option, only it gives us the opportunity to
choose between similar files that are in the same subcategory.
- The first column lets you choose the category
(metadata) to browse from. You can choose any metadata that users input to
describe the files.
- Under that category, you can
choose one of the options that appears in the chosen category, which refines
the number of displayed files.
- The second and third column work
the same way and let you continue refining and narrowing your
results more and more, by entering first the category, and then the option
or an item displayed in the field below.
- File type
field, where you determine the type of your file by selecting it from the
pulldown menu, like in the Search window.
- Rows per page field, where you can select and determine maximum number of
rows that will appear in the table with search results below.
At the bottom of the screen will appear all
the search results in table containing information: Title, Creator, Duration
and Type of the file. Over the resulted item can be performed the same number
of operations (listen, edit, add to playlist, add to scratchpad..) like with
all items you are dealing with in the LiveSupport Station.
Note: In searching and browsing dance music we
recommend categories like 'bpm� or 'mood�, to refine and narrow search results
as much as possible, because it is in your best interest to find the file fast
among thousands of files in the server.
Library Search and ScratchPad are your work
accessories and they are always visible in every working mode. You can always
add files you found(in both browse and search) either to your ScratchPad or
directly to a new playlist. Left-click on a file in the palette with search
results offers you several actions like:
- Add to ScratchPad
- Listen to file
- New Playlist using file
- Edit file
- Delete file
