Hi PasTim,

thanks a lot for this tip and code. 
I was too stupid to see that the Tags are already therei.
And in Erlands Custom Browse Plugin "bitrates" and "Bitdepths" are
already available as pre-definded menu item. Adding it and it works
fine.
And your "sample rates" code is working well too.
My Qnap has enaugh CPU power so i will not try to optimze the code.

You made my day!

Reinhold
