[JIM] Metadata Values in Naming Conventions v.5.5

You can use Metadata Values to automatically build the filename for a Recording. You need a Metadata Set to continue (as explained in the previous chapter). For this example, we will use the “example.xml” file (included by default in the delivery of just:in mac).

This is how it will be displayed in the Inspector.

Example

You can use each element of a Metadata Set within a Naming Preset. In the example above this would be "quality", "customText" and "special". Open the Just Control Configuration panel and switch to the “Naming Presets” tab. Create a new Preset and instead of using "%" + the variable name, use "!" + the variable name, as shown below.

Now switch back to Just Control and select the new Naming Preset and adjust the Metadata Set values. The Naming Presets variables will be changed accordingly.

This is an easy and efficient way to handle the file naming process by using Metadata Set values.
