I had thought that was what Ogg Skeleton was for. I can see the point of including Artist, Rights, etc. I will crawl back into my hole now. -- Martin J Leese E-mail: martin.leese@stanfordalumni.org Web: http://members.tripod.com/martin_leese/

What I call metadata is information about the resource intended for media management (Amarok, ...) and player (VLC, ...) software. -- Daniel Aleksandersen
