Yes, these are general purpose fields.
You can list any labels, names, keywords whatsoever in there.
Just separate the keywords eg. by a semicolon.

For later filters, you can then use the ‚Contains‘ filter.
So make sure to use mutual exclusiv keywords.

No, I am not sure what video is needed?
If it just fields like any other meta data, eg. the Genre or a like.

Have you seen the tutorial videos, eg about Song Tagging here : viewtopic.php?t=1018

You define the values which you want to use - you cannot make a video about it.

Here is an example:
Separate the entries by eg. semicolon to enter multiple values:

And the use a Filter with the contains comparison:

What content do you exactly need?
The word just „explain it more/how it works“ is very generic and I am afraid to not meet your expectations and end up in creating video by video…

What concept are you not getting?
Why resp. what to use the Mood or Grouping values for?
or
How to use them in the filter expression builder? Or how to use the filter expression builder?


Note, that the meta data contains many different other fields as well, like:
Tempo, Genre, Gender, Style, Country, Year …
… and also Mood or Grouping.

All the meta data fields are just there to classify your tracks. There is no general rule on how to classify your tracks - this is up to you.
Hence I wouldn’t know what video to generate.

Each and everyone might have different ways to use the meta data.
Some stations prefer to classify there music just by Year and Genre and seperate there track selection on these values. Ie. they don’t use all other meta data fields.

Others might use other meta data fields.
In the end you might mainly use them (the different field values of the different meta data fields) to define filter rules for your track selection within your media libraries.

Take the following example:
You want to make sure, that in a certain script-line a track from a female artist with a mellow mood is played… so you specify those criterias as a filter for your track selection for that script-line (assuming you have tagged your tracks accordingly).

So what exact video do you need?

Then structuring/classification of your music library is really up to you. ProppFrexx is freely definable in that sense. Eg. Note, that you can use any value for Mood, Gender, Country, Style etc.
But Note, that you can predefined default values for those fields in the general setting, these predefined default values are then already suggested when you edit your meta data for all your audios (when you edit the tags). See the general setting, section Meta Data - Default Values.

Eg. You might define the following default values for the Gender field:
Male
Female
Male Group
Female Group
Mixes Group
Duet
Instrumental

You then would have to apply those values to all of your music tracks - this can of course not happen automatically, ie. editing your meta data for all tracks is time consuming but important.
But there are no pre-configured values to use. You define them by yourself!

Once all your meta data is defined you can use these values to define filter rules for your track selection in your scripts…
