Thanks for this, it helped me find the problem. There seems to be a bug in kaa
where it can't cope with tags over a certain length. The tags appear correctly
in Ubuntu file manager windows, and in RythmnBox, and in easytag. Mminfo won't
read them, so I guess if freevo can't either! The solution is just to truncate
the tags using easytag, then rebuild the freevo cache.
Thanks for the help!
