Libraries

You can define multiple libraries in JRMC.

I have 1 home directory and 4 subdirectories for each major genre (blues, classical, pop, jazz)

I have one default library pointing to the home directory, displaying all the music.

When tagging I often switch to a specific library e.g. Classical as I use different conventions when tagging classical music.

It's reduced size compared with the default one also gives a better overview.

 

I have Update Tags When File Info Changes checked.

When tagging all changes made are written in the tags so all libraries will display the same information.

 

To create a new library, open the Library manager.

Give the library a name.

The location has nothing to with the location of the music, this is the location of the database.

Clone is a nice option, you can copy things like custom views from an existing library

 

In the file menu you pick the library of your choice.

 

In Options > Library & Folders point to the directory containing the music.
