Edit Identity
This is the second page on the Edit Records notebook.
CD Hex
Every audio cd has a cdhex number. This number is build by several
characteristica direct from the cdrom drive. By pressing the scan button
MusicFrame will ask the cdrom drive for this number and inserts it in the
CDhex box. You should do so for every cd in your collection if no cdhex number
is available. Data without cdhex can't be exported to any software cd-player
supportet by MusicFrame.
Note:
Currently this function only works under OS/2. I'm working on a windows and
linux support.
Barcode
The barcode identifies your cd on the label and order-no. level. You should
provide MusicFrame with this information if it's available on the inlay or
on the cd itself.
If there's no barcode printed on your cd or inlay, you have a good chance to
let MusicFrame calculate a barcode. To do this, first fill out the label and
order-no fields, then select the first barcode field.
If MusicFrame says that the label isn't definied yet and you have no barcode,
only fill out the label and order-no fields. See
Edit Label for additional info.
Barcode type
There are 2 different barcode types available on audio cd:
0 111111 111111 6 |
12-Numbers (counting only the 2 groups in the middle)
- are a valid character here |
or |
0 11111 11111 6 |
10-Numbers |
Barcode fields
The first single number on both barcode types is the country code. Often this
number is missing in the printed barcode on cd. If this is true, assume that
the country code is 0 and type it in the first single field. 0 means
international in this case.
The last single number is the check code. Sometimes this number is missing,
too. If this is true, leave the field blank. MusicFrame will calculate it if
all fields were typed in, but the last is missing. To do so you only have to
select the last field.
The two groups in the middle are 10 or 12 chars in length. Type this 2 groups
in the corresponding fields.
Label
If you typed in a valid barcode and MusicFrame are able to find a corresponding
label in its database, MusicFrame fills out this field for you. If this is
not the case, but MusicFrame says "This label isn't definied yet" in the
statusbar, you must first
create this label.
If MusicFrame fills that field with a family label, please edit the field.
When you save the data only one label is allowed in this field.
Order-No
If a barcode is available already, MusicFrame fills this field with a order-no.
calculated from the barcode.
If no barcode is available then type the order-no in this field. Order-no are
always printed on the cd itself.
