Strip () info from files Some titles have parenthetical information in the title, e.g. Spiderman 3 (Blu-Ray). If you would like to have this information removed from the title, use this option.

Link Artists <-> Actors There is a field on the Info tab called Artist, and another on the Video tab called Cast. If you check this option these two fields will be kept in sync.

Link Episode <-> Track If you check this option the episode number in the TV Tags section will be kept in sync with the track number on the advanced tab.

Automatically search for tag data If this option is checked, when a file is selected in the write queue, a search will automatically start based on the title tag, if there is one, or on the filename (minus the extension).

Send data to iTunes after writing After the write of a file is complete, the information will be updated in iTunes. Checking this option will cause iTunes to startup when MetaX does. However, if you change the title of the movie/TV show, this will not work and it will warn you that you'll need to delete/re-add the item manually.

Keep MovieLibrary Synced If you use the MovieLibrary product, this will automatically update it's database when you tag a file. You can select the set of flags to use for the movie when it is added to the database.

Get data from tagChimp When MetaX searches for data, it will not only search Amazon, but also tagChimp (www.tagChimp.com). You do not need to be registered at tagChimp to get data from there.

Share data with tagChimptagChimp relies on user submitted information to build it's database of movies. If you like to share information with tagChimp when you tag a movie, you'll need to register at www.tagChimp.com and get a tagChimp ID, which you supply when you use this option.
