In the menu for adding items in the Tag Panel, there is no item "Bitrate" even though it is in the Columns menu. If there isn't a big problem, could "Bitrate" be added to the menu for Tag Panel choices?
Thank you for your consideration of this request. Al

You can't add fields starting with an underscore to the tag panel
