Sometimes I have digital audio coming from different sources, like ripped vinyl, tape\>harddisc transfers etc. Now I would like to use a tag to identify every audioset so I can easily recognize this in for example JRiver Media.

Discogs has a format list here: [https://www.discogs.com/help/formatslist](https://www.discogs.com/help/formatslist)  
These (some of them) would be the values that I would like to use while tagging. Preferablly in some sort of dropdownmenu system.

What would be the best way to fix this, and which tag should I use it so it is recognized by Jriver?

See here for the request about user-defined dropdown lists:

> Hi I am currently adding tags to a lot of Latin America audio tracks. In the tag panel I have added fields such as MOOD, COMPOSER, etc.. Due to the nature of the Tag information there is a lot of information duplication, especially MOOD (which I titled Rhythm/Mood). Therefore, the reason for this enhancement proposal. In the next version of MP3TAG, it would be useful to allow the User to create their own drop-down lists, similar to the "Genre:" field. As in Genre, the "empty", and items …

Which fields does JRiver show?  
If you want a player that allows to display any set of fields, use Foobar2000.
