Status Icons

When albums and tracks are displayed in the right-hand pane, each line begins with an icon to indicate the status of the item.

Album / Release Icons

img-release

This icon indicates that the information for the release has been successfully retrieved from the MusicBrainz database. Some, but not all, tracks may have been matched to files and the information has not been modified.

img-release-modified

This icon indicates that some of the tracks have been matched and that the information for the release has been modified.

img-release-matched

This icon indicates that all of the tracks have been matched and that the information has not been modified.

img-release-matched-modified

This icon indicates that all of the tracks have been matched and that the information for the release has been modified.

img-release-error

This icon indicates that Picard has encountered an error with the release, typically while retrieving the information from the MusicBrainz database.

Track Icons

img-track-audio

This icon indicates that the track is an audio track and that there is no single file currently matched. This appears if there is no file matched, or if there are multiple files matched.

img-track-video

This icon indicates that the track is a video track and that there is no file currently matched. This appears if there is no file matched, or if there are multiple files matched.

img-track-data

This icon indicates that the track is a data track and that there is no file currently matched. This appears if there is no file matched, or if there are multiple files matched.

img-match-50 img-match-60 img-match-70 img-match-80 img-match-90 img-match-100

These icons indicates the quality of match between the information from the file and the information for the track as provided from the MusicBrainz database. Red indicates a poor match, progressing to all green which indicates a very good match.

img-track-saved

This icon indicates that the track has been saved successfully.

img-error-no-access

This icon indicates that Picard encountered a permission error while trying to load or save the file. This is typically due to the file being marked as read-only, or you do not have sufficient permission to read the file or save the file in the specified directory.

img-error-not-found

This icon indicates that Picard could not find the file with the given path while trying to load or save the track. This is typically due to the file being moved or deleted since it was loaded into Picard, but could also be due to a missing directory.

img-dialog-error

This icon indicates that Picard encountered an error while trying to load or save the track. This is typically due to a problem writing the tags into the file, but could also be due to a storage IO error on your system.

Status Bar

There is a status bar at the bottom of Picard’s main screen, which displays some information about current processing status. This includes four numbers along with the current port number that Picard is monitoring. In addition, if Picard is currently processing your files an estimated time to completion will also be displayed to the left of the status indicators.

From left to right, the numbers represent:

  1. The estimated processing time remaining (only displayed if Picard is actively processing files).

  2. The number of files loaded.

  3. The number of MusicBrainz releases loaded.

  4. The number of files with pending action (e.g. loading, saving, fingerprinting).

  5. The number of active network requests.
