# MusicBrainz Wizard Release Details

This step of the wizard displays the details for a single release.

Note that if all the files in the current selection already have a common MusicBrainz id, the wizard will open immediately to this panel. If you want to look for a different release, you can click on the New Search button.

The table at the top of the window presents the type of data which can be imported from the release. The importing of each item type may be enabled or disabled by checking or clearing the Import column. Setting the Import value to - implies that the field should only be imported if the associated value in a file is not empty. ie. current non empty values will not be overwritten. The value associated with some items can be edited inline. Yate will retain an item type's enable/disable state until you change it again. Additional information as to how the import column is preset can be found in Discogs & MusicBrainz Import Settings.

Further import granularity is available on a per file basis by means of The MusicBrainz Exclusion Window which is activated via the Actions menu.

In order to handle a variety of low level mappings, some of the Classical metadata items map to custom fields. If the custom fields are not defined, the metadata cannot be imported. The metadata items which require custom fields have an * after their name. A Custom Panel template is available which displays all of the classical fields which can be imported. The panel contains custom field definitions as well. The panel is described in more detail and may be downloaded from here. Alternately, the required custom fields can be created via the Yate>Setup>Create Missing MusicBrainz Classical Fields menu item.

You can enable or disable the import all of the items at once by right clicking in the table and selecting the appropriate context menu item. You can also choose to import all items only if they are currently empty. Note that certain items may contain more than one value separated by the multi value delimiter. If an item's field value contains the text URL, you can open the associated web page by selecting Open URL from the context menu or by double clicking on the item. The context menu also allows you to copy a URL to the clipboard.

Using the context menu you can save the current Import column settings. These settings can be restored from the saved set.

The table at the bottom of the window displays the title, track number and disc number for each track in the release. You can edit all of the information inline. MusicBrainz information is submitted by users and as such various formats may be used to represent the information. All attempts are made to properly determine the correct track and disc numbers.

You can use the splitter bar separating the two tables, to change the size of the tables.

Various functions are available to you via the bottom table's context menu.

Set Disc Break is used to identify the selected track as the start of a new disc.

Clear Disc Break is used to merge the disc of the currently selected track with the preceding track's disc. The function will only do something if the selected track is the first on a disc.

Renumber within Discs will renumber the tracks from 1 within each disc.

Renumber Eliminating Discs will renumber the tracks from 1 setting all the disc numbers to 1.

You can also choose to display the values in the Time column as milliseconds or as minutes:seconds. The setting you choose is sticky.

If this release does not meet your requirements you can click on the Back to Release button and choose a different release from the list. Note that all editing changes will have been lost if you subsequently choose the same release.

If artwork is available for the release, the View Artwork button will be visible. This will take you to the artwork display where you can view and manually save the artwork.

If there are artwork related functions which can be performed, there will be a disclosure button to the immediate right of the Help button. When clicking on the disclosure button, the displayed menu may contain the following functions:
