Change here the way how WinCatalog processes different types of files.
General information
for E-book files section
This processing module grabs info from electronic books. Currently it supports three major formats: Electronic Publication (ePub), Amazon Kindle (mobi), and FictionBook (FB2).
Grab info from E-book files. If this option is on, WinCatalog will grab the info from e-books.
Replace filename by Author / Title value. For every file, WinCatalog stores two values - the original filename, and name (or display name). If this option is on, WinCatalog will replace the display name by the "Author - Title" pattern grabed from the e-book metadata. Changing the display name does not affect the filename and the file will not "lose the connection" with the original file.
Create tags for Authors. If this option is on, WinCatalog will create tags using the Author names grabbed from e-book metadata and link the book with the tags. If the tag(s) already exist(s), the existing tags will be linked with the file.
Extract cover images from E-book files. If this option is on, WinCatalog will grab embedded covers from e-book files (some books may have no cover images).
Extensions. Files with these extensions will be processed as video files.
Extract contents of text files and keep it as Comments. If this option is on, WinCatalog will copy some text from text files and store them in the comments field for the file record in the catalog.
Limit text to keep. If this option is on, WinCatalog will limit the store text according to the "Number of characters to keep" (next option). Otherwise, it will store all the text from the text files.
Number of characters to keep. The maximum number of characters to grab from the text files and keep in comments. Please note that WinCatalog limits the text only if the option "Limit text to keep" is on. The number is the number of characters, so it works identically for Unicode and ANSI text files.
Extensions. Files with these extensions will be processed as text files.
WinCatalog can download details of Audio CDs, including disc covers from the Internet. Currently, only one online source is supported (MusicBrainz.org), other online sources will be added later. To add an Audio CD to your catalog, insert it into the drive. WinCatalog computes a unique disk ID, passes it to the server (no other information is passing), and receives back the disc title, artist name, list of tracks with durations, and disc cover image. Adding discs by scanning barcodes is not supported in the current version, but is planned for future updates.
