Tag Editing, Changing Title/Genre/Year and More in Rocket Player

What a “Tag” is:

When you do a Google query for “Tag” this is the first result:

A label attached to someone or something for identification or other information.


This certainly is the root of what a tag is - if we change this to fit more specifically what we are dealing with here a metadata tag is.

WikiPedia provides a good definition: [metadata tag’s] describe an item and allows it to be found again by browsing or searching.

To “Edit a tag” is to “Change the label of the item that is out of place so that it can be found again by browsing or searching”


There are three different ways that you can edit tag information.

  1. Through Rocket Player
  2. Through your media library (iTunes)
  3. Using another 3rd Party tagging application

Note: if used with iSyncr, tag edits made in Rocket Player will not be imported into iTunes.
