5. Occupying the top right hand area of the screen is the Metadata Editor. If a supported M4A
or MP3 file is selected, any metadata it contains can be examined, edited, and written back
to the file. If a WAV or AIFF file is selected, the section is used to edit the metadata that will
be written when this file is encoded.
7.1 Folder Browser
The leftmost section of the Codec Toolbox Manager presents controls for browsing directories.
From here, individual folders can be selected so that their contents can be loaded into the File List.
This section describes the different components that make up the Folder Browser section,
including details about some common operations you may need to perform.
To help minimise the size of the Manager, the Folder Browser can be hidden and revealed at any
time using the hide/reveal button. This button is located on the top right hand side of the section.
7.1.1 Setting up a Root Folder
The Root of the Folder Browser is the folder whose path is displayed at the top of the section. All
folders contained in the current Root Folder will appear in the Folder Browser. The Root Folder can
be selected in one of five ways:
• Select one of the provided default Root Folders from the drop-down list.
• Browse to a new Root Folder via the folder browse button.
• Right-click a folder in the Folder Browser and choose ‘Make Root’.
• Drag and drop a folder onto the section. This folder will become the Root.
• Drag and drop a supported audio file onto the section. This file’s parent folder will become
the Root.
