Hello

COMMENT or DESCRIPTION in VorbisComment? .... many years is this very unclear for me.
For (i think) 8 years say the xiph foundation "comment change to description" ... but until today read KODI (and other) only the COMMENT >> http://kodi.wiki/view/Music_tagging#Tags_Kodi_reads <<

Please , what is now and in the future the correct tag name? COMMENT or DESCRIPTION?

(sorry for my English )
Thomas

EDIT:
Or is this perhaps changeable. (advancedsettings.xml) ?

I'm not sure, but the link you gave says comment.....so I would guess comment.

Hello and thanks for your answer

Yes, the wiki (link) says COMMENT. But thats is the problem .... EasyTag write DESCRIPTION. VLC read both and i don't now what i need. When i now write COMMENT and KODI use in V20 DESCRIPTION, than i must change all ... thats Sh.. .
This is like a big secret ... DESCRIPTION is recommended from xiph but nobody want it integrate

The tags that Kodi processes are hard coded, not user configurable.

At the moment Kodi processes COMMENT tag, but not DESCRIPTION. If in some future version processing for DESCRIPTION is added then it will be backwards compatible and all your music files tagged with COMMENT would continue to be processed.

EasyTag write DESCRIPTION.

Most tagging software allows the user to configure what vorbis/xiph tags are used. I am not familiar with EasyTag, but mp3tag and Picard both do.

DESCRIPTION is recommended from xiph but nobody want it integrate

Can you provide a reference for that?
