Summary0002346: Wrong text in manual and what are credentials good for?
Description

In the following:

1)
<DCPIssuer> — Issuer text to write into CPL files.
<DCPCreator> — Creator text to write into CPL files.
<Company> — name to write into MXF files.
<Product> — name to write into MXF files.
<Product> — version to write into MXF files.

in https://dcpomatic.com/manual/html/ch22.html

the second Product should probably be Version.

2) Should not Product and Version be autoset to DCP-o-Matic and whaterver version is in use? (I guess it should stay user editable as per https://dcpomatic.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=7445&amp;hilit=creator+issuer#p7445

3) I think I used to know, but I do not know. What are the individual fields in Preferences÷Identifiers supposed to be for? I tried searching for it but could not find anything relevant and the manual seems to be silent too. Could this be please specified?
