Metadata analysis
If you want to upload a music file to a Home Server, PC Link can analyze it using VAIO Content
Analyzer and add the results to the music file as metadata to make it compatible on the DLNA devices
supporting the Music Channel Function. With the Music channels, you can play music according to your
mood or situation.
Tips
Metadata analysis can be applied to the files in MP3, ATRAC, and WMA format.
Metadata is data with content information. DLNA devices use this added metadata for file management
and search.
