 Ideally, you want to see zeroes for all the rows in this report, except the first and last ones. The first row tells you how many recordings have been added to the Niente database (so hopefully that's non-zero because otherwise it means you don't //have// a music collection!). The last row shows the date when the last integrity check of some sort was performed and thus the date when the database was last brought up-to-date with the state of tagging and physical integrity of your collection. Ideally, you want to see zeroes for all the rows in this report, except the first and last ones.

 You get the idea, I hope: each non-zero row in the Quick Aggregate Statistics report should be regarded as a trigger to produce the corresponding //detailed// report that will list the specifics of what's been detected as potentially going wrong. You get the idea, I hope: each non-zero row in the Quick Aggregate Statistics report should be regarded as a trigger to produce the corresponding //detailed// report that will list the specifics of what's been detected as potentially going wrong.
  
-Note that two statistics may not be listed in this Aggregate Statistics report, though they will be by default. The rows O2 ("Potential Volume Boosts") and O3 ("Missing sample rates in filenames") will only appear if you have configured the persistent configuration parameters **Report on volume boosts** and** Report filenames without bitdepth data** respectively. Both parameters default to 'yes', so those rows //will// appear by default. However, if you switch those parameters to 'no', because you simply aren't interested in doing volume boosts to your music files, or don't care whether their physical files contain bit-depth and sample-rate information, then those rows will disappear from the aggregate report. You can always run the equivalent detailed reports, however, even if you've turned off aggregate reporting for those particular issues.+Note that two statistics may **not** be listed in this Aggregate Statistics report, though they will be by default.
