similar to: ID3-style information

So there are no command line options like in oggenc to do artist and misc tags? Sure if you've got a solution that I don't have to do from scratch then post away! :-) Thanks!

if your talking id3v1, something along the lines of (in bash): for f in *.flac ; do tail -c 128 $f > tag && flac-0.8 -d $f ${f%*.flac}.wav && flac-0.9 -V ${f%*.flac}.wav $f && cat tag >> $f ; done should work. of course, test it before you set it loose on your whole collection. if you're on windows, my condolences... no wait, just get cygwin :) Josh ---

I've been with FLAC since 0.7, and I've loved the FLAC files I've ripped with grip, converted from FLAC 0.8 to 0.9, and played constantly on my desktop. And then I noticed the truncated ID3 tags in my FLAC files. I at first thought the problem lied in FLAC; I posted to this list, hoping for a solution. But then I realized my trusty GRIP was the flawed program. Now re-ripping my

I tagged some FLAC files with ID3V2 information (by the id3v2 program), but their metadata does not show up in XMMS. Anyone else have this problem? Anyone have a solution? (I tested the tags using the --list option of id3v2; they are there. XMMS and the FLAC plugin just don't seem to respect them.) -- Asheesh.

I haven't seen too much feedback since the 0.9 release, which probably means one of three things: 1. it works perfectly and nobody has any complaints! 2. nobody is using 0.9. 3. the list is having problems. I mention #3 because at least one person has been blocked by sourceforge's new filter. Anyone...anyone? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get email

Hey all..I'm brand new to FLAC and learning to use it. Can somebody tell me how to insert things such as Artist, album etc. into the FLAC file? I'd like to do this at encode time via the command line. Thanks, Chris -- Only in America do banks leave both doors open and then chain the pens to the counters

So I've just ripped my entire 600 CD collection to flac format (200gigs worth) with vorbis comments in the flac metadata. But my gripe is that neither Winamp nor XMMS's flac plug-ins seem to have the ability to read the vorbis comment from the metadata. Are there any flac players for windoze or linux that can access the metadata? Or do i have to add redundant ID3 tags to all my flac

Alright. So, the tag proposal that has been labored over for some months has now been reclassified a bit. There new URL is now here: http://reactor-core.org/ogg-tag-recommendations.html And is prefaced by the following statement: "The following recommendations were developed by a community of Ogg/Vorbis users for their own use." I believe the implication is that this document

I have been following flac development for some time now, but with the release of 1.0.4 I thought I would finally start the task of encoding my entire cd collection into flac format. After looking through the list archives and the webpage I still have a few unanswered questions. 1. What is the best method tagging method to use? Josh mentioned that id3v1 was preferred over id3v2 since it

Hi, I just had a problem that is not described in the faq and it was quite hard to find the right fix so I wanted to send it here, hoping it will be added to the faq. The error message is the same as in: http://www.xiph.org/archives/vorbis/200210/0073.html Warning: Hole in data found at approximate offset 5238000 bytes. Corrupted ogg. In this case it was caused by id3tags added by grip.

Hi, I'm writing a tag-editor for ogg files. What tags, besides ogg-tags, are allowed in ogg files (if any). I'm thinking of id3v1, id3v2, ape tags and so on. I have a (probably small) problem with writing a new "comment header". I have tried opening a file with a valid header, and then simply moved some of the comment tags position, so that the total size and the count still

I've been using FLAC for just over two years now, and I've been on the list for as long. I asked in March of 2001 about ID3 V1 and V2, and learned that both are supported. However, since then FLAC has moved to being an Ogg project, and the Vorbis comment field seems to be more capable. More than once, if I recall correctly, I've read Josh Coalson cursing his support for ID3 tags.

Hello, I heard from a coworker that there was something that changed recently with FLAC and ID3. I don't have ANY details on what that means, and was wondering what has changed. The only thing I see (in the changelog) is that plugins have removed support for ID3 tags. I'm curious because I have been using ID3 tags with FLAC (I store extra data such as album art with my media files,

this is a little off-topic, but i want to get a sense of "best practices" for tagging flac files. i want to archive my entire cd collection as flac files (onto a few of those new western digital 120GB drives). as part of encoding the flac files, i'd like to add 1. id3v2 tags (preferably automatically gotten from freedb) 2. timed lyrics a la lyrics3 v2 (is there a freedb-like

So before i knew better, i encoded a lot of my CDs in flac and added id3 tags (they worked, so great!). I know i've seen mention of others doing this; anyone gone to the trouble to write a tag conversion tool? Shouldn't be too tough, but i'd rather not reinvent the wheel. danno -- dan pritts danno@umich.edu 734-929-9770

after spending a lot of time integrating X-Fixer's winamp2 plugin code, I am on the verge of removing id3 v1/v2 support from the plugins completely. it is really hard to get right in a way that works intuitively for the user, and i18n is also a nightmare. in id3v2 every field can have a different encoding. FLAC tag a.k.a. Vorbis comment support is very good now so unless someone comes up

Lo and behold, the new version of grip (http://www.nostatic.org/grip) has ID3V2 support. I want to be able to rip from grip, extract the data from the FLACs into WAVs, normalize the WAVs, then re-encode them into FLACs. How can I make sure the ID3V1 and ID3V2 tags stored by grip are saved in between the FLACs? What shell commands can I use to store the tags in a temp file? Thanks for

The protocol of sending of metadata over a stream (which is HTTP) does not allow for this type of thing. The problem is not necessarily the fact that the id3 tags are at the end of the files, as id3v2 does not have this restriction, but rather just the "agreed" upon protocol for handling metadata for streamed mp3s (and I'm only going to talk about mp3s here, since it's

OK, that's what I thought, but wanted to be sure. I've been updating some metadata handling routines in our application and heard something about this and was curious. > the spec
