Editing multiples

[HomerRamone]

I think ive asked this before but maybe theres an update...

Is there any way, or are there any plans to provide a method making editing sequential items easier. Currently if you add (say) 2 seasons of a TV show and you want to set the episdoe numbers (Which you need to do for the smart filter if you have say album/series and disc/season set as the keywords it doesnt seem to show anything if the episode field is empty)
Its a slow and tedious process editing these as you need to manually edit each one. for a show with 24 episodes thats a lot of editing.

Sorry - there's no easy way to manually edit each file's properties other than using the Properties dialog. A few tips:

• In the Properties dialog, you can proceed to the next/previous file in the folder/playlist by clicking the small arrow buttons at the top right of the Properties dialog. This lets you save the changes for the current file and proceed to the next file while keeping the Properties dialog open.
• If you wish to change the same attribute for many files, you can select all of the files you wish to change (using the CTRL or SHIFT key with your mouse, or using mouse rubberbanding), and then right-click on one of the files and click Properties. Changing an attribute and clicking OK in the Properties dialog will set that for all selected files.
• You should not really need to manually edit all your files in a TV series / season if they have good file names. Mezzmo will automatically collect the TV show & season & episode information from the file path and then automatically collect the information from online web sites such as www.thetvdb.com. Mezzmo supports the following file naming styles:
  
  C:\folder\Movie Title.avi
  C:\folder\Movie Title YYYY.avi
  C:\folder\Movie Title (YYYY).avi
  C:\folder\Title s01e01 Subtitle.avi
  C:\folder\Title 1x01 Subtitle.avi
  C:\folder\Title Season 1\Title 1x01 Subtitle.avi
  C:\folder\Title Season 1 Episode 1 Subtitle.avi
  C:\folder\Title\Season 1\01 Subtitle.avi
  C:\folder\Title\Season 1\s01e01 Subtitle.avi
  C:\folder\Title\Season 1\1x01 Subtitle.avi
  C:\folder\Title\Season 1\Title s01e01 Subtitle.avi
  C:\folder\Title\Season 1\Title 1x01 Subtitle.avi
  C:\folder\Title\Season 1\Episode 1 Subtitle.avi
  C:\folder\Title\Season 1\Season 1 Episode 1 Subtitle.avi
  C:\folder\Title Season 1\01 Subtitle.avi
  C:\folder\Title Season 1\s01e01 Subtitle.avi
  C:\folder\Title Season 1\1x01 Subtitle.avi
  C:\folder\Title Season 1\Title s01e01 Subtitle.avi
  C:\folder\Title Season 1\Title 1x01 Subtitle.avi
  C:\folder\Title Season 1\Episode 1 Subtitle.avi
  C:\folder\Title Season 1\Season 1 Episode 1 Subtitle.avi

OK, thanks.
The file naming will help - I can rename much quicker than manually editing.
