hello again
i tried to scan my audio archive and i noticed that
it ignores the id3 tag in my .m4a files.
and i wonder why is that?

guess that reading the info from this kind of files is not supported.

[Bhellium]

but isnt it odd?
because as far as i know it stores id3 tags in the same way
as a mp3 does. so what i was thinking is that maybe the scan
simply assumes that it dont have a id3 tag, without looking.
could that be?

/bhellium

p.s if not you can delete this and il do a feature request or maybe
i should refer to feature req "[ 817124 ] more id tag formats support via "tag" code"?

[Hullebulle]

i can move it to feature suggestions if you want.

[Bhellium]

yea sure, thanx.
but who did the coding for the scan/"id3v2 tag" feature, maybe he/she can tell me if the scan assumes there is no id3 tag in m4a files...

@ the moment we only look for id3 tags in mp3 files
pls upload a m4a file to http://www.xboxmediaplayer.it.upload
and i'll see if it works with m4a files 2

k, got your file and tried it however it doesnt work
our mp3 tag loader (libid3) doesnt find any id3 tags
in your file

maybe if someone finds a good m4a tag reader program
(opensource and written in c/c++) i can get it 2 work
