Playlist View

If your Local Library is an iTunes library, the Filter Tree will show your iTunes Playlists ('standard playlists' and Smart Playlists). If your Remote Library is also an iTunes library, the Remote library's playlists will also be shown.

Playlists are displayed in fashion similar to iTunes' playlists. In SuperSync playlists are also color coded. Gray playlists are in the Local Library, Blue playlists are in the Remote Library, Green playlists are playlists that are in both library (but may not have the same tracks).

SuperSync can synchronize playlists. For more information, read the Playlist Synchronization section later in this manual.

Artwork Pane

The Artwork pane display a selected track's artwork if the track has artwork embedded within the file. You can show/hide the Artwork pane by using the selecting the Show Artwork command in SuperSync's Controls menu.

Note: tracks can either have embedded artwork (i.e. artwork is part of the file) or have artwork external to the file in iTunes' artwork database. SuperSync can only view and transfer artwork if the artwork is embedded into the track.

Genre, Artist, and Album Column Browser

At the top of the Track List pane, you'll see the Genre, Artist, and Album Column Browser. Selecting an item in these columns displays all tracks matching that Genre, Artist, or Album. For example, if you Alternative from the Genre column, the Track List will show all tracks in the Alternative column. You can subsequently use the Artist and Album columns to refine your track listings. When you are done, click the Show All button to view all your tracks.

Track List:
The Track List displays a cumulative listing of all of your libraries' files, along with information about their synchronization status and location. Each column can be sorted in ascending or descending order by clicking on the column header. Selecting different sources/views from the Filter Tree changes or using the Find Dialog changes what tracks are shown in the Track List (although you can always use the 'Show All' button/command to reset the Track List). The following describes the Track List's different columns and their functionality:

• The Source column uses colored icons to indicate the location and sync status of a track. Read the Source Icons heading later in this section for a list of possible icons and their definitions.
• The Flags column uses letter flags to indicate any particular status of note for each file. Read the Flag Icons heading later in this section for a list of possible icons and their definitions.
• The Title column displays the title of each file.
• The Artist column displays the artist of each file.
• The Album column displays the album of each file.
• The Track column displays the track number of each file.
• The Genre column displays the genre of each file.
• The Size column displays the file size of each file.
• The Time column displays the song length of each file.
• The BR column displays the bit rate of each file.
• The Kind column displays the file type (e.g. MP3, M4V, MP4, etc.)
• The Rating column displays the Rating of a track. Note: Ratings are set in iTunes.

More columns of track information can be displayed or disabled in the View tab in SuperSync's Preferences window.

Status Footer

At the bottom of the SuperSync window is the SuperSync Status Footer. This Status Bar displays the status of SuperSync and its various features.

The Status Bar contains the following fields:

• Version Number
  Shows the SuperSync Version Number. Please note that all computers running SuperSync should have the same version number.


• Local Library Status
  Shows Local Library's Total Track Count and Sync Percentage (if Remote Library is connected). If you place and hover your mouse cursor over this field, a tooltip will appear with additional information about your Local Library.

This field reports the current updates that SuperSync is sending to iTunes. Note, in some cases, you may notice this field as 'stuck' in the process of updating. If this happens, switch to iTunes as iTunes may have a dialog open preventing SuperSync from sending its update commands.
