Bug Description
Mixxx 2.0
For the auto-key detection feature.
From my original post at the forums:
"I love the new key detection feature, but cannot find a way to UPDATE it, especially if it is wrong.
Case in point - on track I loaded today has the key listed as "D" (major), Unfortunately, the song is ACTUALLY in E minor. I have tried to update it in the properties tab for the track but alas, it remains in D even after correcting. So one of a few things needs to happen: 1) I'm missing something on updating to the correct key and can fix this; 2) The key detection is somehow permanently changing the key in the library and cannot be changed 3) Is there a way to have the ENTIRE track analyzed closer? I do NOT have fast detection enabled. 4) Something else, and I am open to suggestions"
Bottom line - there needs to be a way to override the key of the song as detected, no differently than if you change the artist name, or corrected a spelling in a track, etc.
I suppose this has to somehow be backward compatible with the Camelot detection structure as well, but I'll leave that to the coder pros :)

Thanks for the report!
I can confirm that the track properties dialog can't seem to edit the key -- looks like we broke that at some point. I'm pretty sure it worked when the feature first went in.
You can edit the key from the library table in the key column by clicking once, pausing then clicking again.
