Re: DSF Tagging - Feedback



If I tag a FLAC and MP3 files with EasyTag, MPD will read them without a problem. DSF, which should work in the same way has this problem. So, I believe the issue is specifically within the dsf tagging.

A quick look at MPD's dependencies (old wiki? - http://mpd.wikia.com/wiki/Development_Dependencies_on_Debian_Derivitive) shows libid3tag is required. So MPD should read id3 tags. Assuming its been programmed to accept or look for id3 tags in a dsf file.

If you can see the id3 tags in a dsf file after setting them in EasyTag and re-parsing the file. EasyTag is not the issue. Again, not all libraries/developers are "aware" to look for tags in some audio files.

Maybe a id3/dsf extension for mpd is needed?

Agreed. I don't care much about Foobar. My main listening application is MPD which cannot read the tags as well. I believe MPD uses the same libraries as EasyTag.

    FYI - id3 is not an RFC or other specification - just a
    defined/documented format that others have agreed to use - sort of.

    I have encountered applications that tag files using app-only
    defined tag names - just not necessarily ones spelled out in the
    id3 documents. Just because an application doesn't recognize tags
    written to id3 headers in a non-mp3/ogg/flac file does not put the
    problem with EasyTag.

    I would check with "FooBar" docs/src to ensure the tag they are
    looking for are the same ones spelled out in id3 (and not
    "foobar-artist" or something similar).

        OK, Some progress. EasyTag does not crash anymore and the only
        things I see when I run backtrace is a message about new
        threads. Now, the problem I am experiencing is that although
        EasyTag can successfully tag dsf files (both 2.3 and 2.4), no
        other application can read those tags. EasyTag will write and
        read the tags without a problem but other applications will
        show no tags.

        This is how EasyTag sees the files:

                    I double-checked, and the changes were for writing DSF
                    tags, so it is very likely a local configuration
