Editing Media
The detail page displays all properties of a media item. Edit metadata, configure restrictions, and view technical details.

Interface Layout
The editing interface has two areas:
- Main area (left, 3/4 width): Metadata fields and media fields
- Sidebar (right, 1/4 width): Two tabs — Details and Restrictions
Metadata Fields

Cover Art
Cover art appears in the studio interface and metadata exports.

Remove cover:

Autofill
Click the Autofill button to automatically fetch metadata and cover art from external sources based on the current artist and title.
TTL Date
Set an expiry date for the file. After this date, the file is marked as expired. This is useful for time-limited content like ads or licensed tracks.
Tags
Add free-form text tags to a media item for categorization and filtering. Enter a tag and confirm to add it. Tags appear in the library and can be used to filter the file list.
Custom Fields
Custom fields hold values for the fields defined in the project's Types & Fields configuration. Field types include boolean, string, number, and select. Fields appear in the main area below the core metadata. See Types & Fields to configure them.
Stems
If AI stem separation has run for a file, the separated audio stems are available:
- Bass
- Drums
- Vocals
- Other
Stems are shown only when available for the file.
Cue Points
Cue points define how tracks play and transition. To edit cue points, click Open in Cue Editor. This opens the dedicated cue editor panel.

Auto Cue
The cue editor includes an Auto Cue feature with three presets:
| Preset | Description |

| Medium | Balanced detection |
| Hard | Cuts closer to the audio content |
Auto Cue analyzes the audio and sets intro, outro, fade in, and fade out points automatically based on silence detection.

Hook Start and Hook End define a preview segment for the media library and scheduler.

The Details tab in the sidebar displays:

Availability Scheduling
A 7-day by 24-hour grid controls availability for each hour of each day of the week. Active hours show a checkmark on a colored background. Inactive hours show a gray background.
Click cells to enable or disable playback for each hour. The planner respects these restrictions when generating rotations. Restrictions apply to automatic scheduling only; manual playback in the studio is not affected.
Date Restrictions
Limit when a media item appears in rotations using two date fields:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Not Before | The item is excluded from rotations before this date |
| Not After | The item is excluded from rotations after this date |
Leave a field empty to remove that limit.
Saving Changes
Click Save Changes in the header to apply modifications. The button is disabled when no changes have been made.
