See (info "(emms) Defining Info Methods") for a list. Other info-tags could be read into the metadata cache as well, but at the moment there is no use for them. (Or at least I do not know of any.) So it would be mostly a waste of space. Tag writing is something I don't know much about. I deliberately left out tag writing from emms-info-native. There were two reasons: (1) read-only was much easier to implement, and (2) with writing, there is always a risk of data loss. > One more question I have is: The tracktag program is used to write > metadata to opus files.

I don't see a problem with tracktag not being updated if it still does its expected job without fail. What would be the benefit here? -- Petteri
