Feature Request - Custom field auto population

General Discussion
1

g'day there

Firstly, just wanna say what an awesome program. Ive used it for years, and since I've got my iPhone and started converting to mp4 format, I appreciate this program even more!

However, I do find one feature lacking that I imagine that most people would probably want, and thats auto population of custom fields. When i say that I mean how like for example GENRE already has a list of option you can choose, which you can add to.

I really wish I could have this feature especially when tagging my MP4 Television and Movie library for import into iTunes (or another library if i can find a kick ass one that sorts s well as it for video)

For example... ill use the iTunes Media Type tag. It has a few possible options: Movie, TV Show, Podcast, Music Video etc etc etc. I would like to be able to load, for example a text file with these in it, so i only have to select from the drop down, instead of having to type it in every bloody time (which has the added risk of typos :stuck_out_tongue:)

Perhaps, a text file with the field name with just each option on a newline such as:

or

anyways, just a thought that may help some people who tag different mixed media at once

Cheers
