Two buttons allow you to set up a default `template' of Song Info field settings that you use frequently. Just type in the information for fields that change infrequently, leave any Song-specific fields blank (like the Title, for instance), and click the Save as Defaults button. This saves that collection of field contents as your `Default Setting'. Then later, any time you want to re-use your template information for a Song, just open the Song Info dialog box and click the Use Defaults button:


Item
Use
Save as Defaults button
Copies the current field contents to the Default Setting.
Use Defaults button
Fills fields in from the Default Setting, replacing the current field contents.

Fields that are blank in the Default Setting will not be replaced.



URL Links in Song Info Fields

Several of the Song Info fields support URLs. This gives you a way to provide hyperlinks that Web listeners viewing your Song Info with the Beatnik Player control panel can click, taking them to Web pages of your choice.
For example, the URL in following text will be clickable in the Beatnik Player:

Click for licensing info: http://www.doeboys.com/licensing.htm

Note: Don't try to use HTML tags like <A HREF="..."></A> in a Song Info field - any text starting with the familiar http:// is automatically treated as a URL.
