Re: [Banshee-List] ID3v2.3 tags

["Andres G. Aragoneses" <knocte gmail com>]

I didn't know that we were using GStreamer when tagging in the case of 
AudioCD ripping.

Really, shouldn't we solve the consistency instead of chasing GStreamer 
bugs? If we're using taglib-sharp for in the rest of Banshee, we should 
use taglibsharp for AudioCD ripping as well.
