When the Metadata Editor is opened, e.g. in MediaPortal, metadata will be visible, but not editable. The Edit button is only be active if the current user has the functional right for editing metadata.



When the "Edit" mode is active, users can edit metadata values. Clicking on the "Save" option will have all the changes saved.
