General Tab

A double click on any table entry opens the entry mask with one or several tabs containing different metadata. The following tabs are installed as default (but not necessarily visible according to the configuration):

Class	The entry class can be changed if other classes are allowed in the current table. The class defines which tabs are available in the entry mask; e.g. the tab "Music1" might only be visible in the "Music" class, if defined accordingly. If an item of a class not permitted in a table is dragged to the table, a blocker cursor will be displayed to explain the conflict.

Title	Shows the title of the table entry (not the file name).
Generator	The application/DigaSystem module that created the entry is displayed here.
Creation	Date and time of the entries created are recorded here.
Last change	The time and date of the last access of this entry is shown here.
Number	This number is unique and assigned by the system. It cannot be changed.
File 1	The path and name of the HiRes media file associated with this record is shown in this field.
Size 1	In this field the size of the medium associated with file 1 is displayed.
File 2	The path and name of the LoRes media file associated with this record is shown in this field.
Size 2	In this field the size of the medium associated with file 1 is displayed.
Groups	List of the groups the item has been assigned to. For linking an entry with Virtual Entry see Link Media Entry with Virtual Entry

State	System field, which is set automatically and only editable with the ADMIN account. The entry status can be:
	Unknown Current state is unknown; this is usually only displayed while creating a new entry before it is saved into the table.
	Virtual Database entry without associated audio.
	Virtual, Available A special virtual entry, whose media files can be ordered via DigaReplicator (without DigaReplicator this state is irrelevant).
	Recording An entry which is currently being recorded for which, however, a database entry has already been created.
	Existing An audio entry which exists in the table.
	Evacuated Archived entry which is not available online.
	External Entry for managing entries which are stored on non-digital media and will never be available online.
	Requested Entry has been requested but has not yet been replicated. The entry status is also displayed on the page Input/output.
	Incomplete This state can be set, if a DigaReplicator transfer of this entry has failed and the file therefore is not completely downloaded (irrelevant, if no DigaReplicator is used).

Owner	This field allows access to this entry to be controlled at user and user group levels. However, this feature can be de-activated system wide.
	All The item is visible and editable to all users having access to the current table.
	[User] (personal) Other users can see the entry and preview it but cannot access the database entry and cannot edit the audio.
	[User] Invisible Other users cannot see the entry and therefore not open or edit it.
	#[Group] (personal) Every group the user is assigned to is listed. Other groups can see the entry and preview it but cannot access the database entry and cannot edit the audio.
	#[Group] invisible Every group the user is assigned to is listed. If the user is a member of a group then other groups cannot see the entry and therefore cannot open or edit it.
Delete date	The date this entry becomes obsolete. This field can be valid for the Selection Tree and deletion routines.
Delete protected	This flag allows the entry to be protected from unauthorized deletion.
Fade option	Sets a fading option (relevant for playout systems like BCS)
