Thanks for looking at this Michael. Browsing through my music folder, they all read:
ID3v2.3.0 No ID3v1. I haven't seen every track, of course, but Mp3tag indicates that they are all ID3v2, and SlimServer seems to agree with this. I set Mp3tag to remove ID3v1 and write only ID3v2, and since you can sort by field I sorted by what tag types were in the file. They are all ID3v2. --- Michaelwagner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I just took a quick boo at the CPAN code for reading > ID3 tags.
