Summary0005661: Properties are inferred by default for non-library tracks
DescriptionTwo users have indicated that they feel it is incorrect for MM to infer properties for tracks that aren't in the library (e.g. if dragging tracks onto the player).

I would suggest that if users prefer to not have this behavior, then MM should apply inference settings from Tools > Options > Library for tracks that aren't in the library.

We can modify the tooltip to indicate this change in behavior.

Alternatively, as suggested by users in the forum, we can just disable such guessing in the player.

> MM should apply inference settings from Tools > Options > Library

Note that is highly counter-intuitive w.r.t. the current presentation of that option under Library.

EDIT: http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=206054#p206054 shows overall user preference for the fix to be non-optional non-inference.

I amended the Summary

(play is not necessary or sufficient) to
