Sorry for the late reply - I don't follow the General list regularly any
more: too much traffic.
flac3mp3 copies flac tags (vorbis comments) to mp3 tags (id3v2).
It currently has a set of tags that it knows about:
our %MP3frames = (
'ALBUM' => 'TALB',
'ARTIST' => 'TPE1',
'COMMENT' => 'COMM',
'DATE' => 'TYER',
'GENRE' => 'TCON',
'TITLE' => 'TIT2',
'TRACKNUMBER' => 'TRCK',
'MUSICBRAINZ_ALBUMID' => 'TXXX',
'MUSICBRAINZ_ALBUMSTATUS' => 'TXXX',
'MUSICBRAINZ_ALBUMTYPE' => 'TXXX',
'MUSICBRAINZ_ARTISTID' => 'TXXX',
'MUSICBRAINZ_SORTNAME' => 'TXXX',
'MUSICBRAINZ_TRACKID' => 'UFID',
'MUSICBRAINZ_TRMID' => 'TXXX',
# 'REPLAYGAIN_TRACK_PEAK' => 'TXXX',
# 'REPLAYGAIN_TRACK_GAIN' => 'TXXX',
# 'REPLAYGAIN_ALBUM_PEAK' => 'TXXX',
# 'REPLAYGAIN_ALBUM_GAIN' => 'TXXX',
);
As you can see, DISCNUMBER is not included, which is a bit of an
oversight since I too use DISCNUMBER in my flac files.
All that is required to add DISCNUMBER is to add the following line to
the above declaration:
'DISCNUMBER' => 'TPOS',
(Assuming that 'TPOS' is the ID3v2 tag that corresponds to the Vorbis
Comment 'DISCNUMBER')
I really must do some work on flac2mp3 - it's been months since I've had
time to look at it.
