To access meta-data from some formats on Windows you will need the Window Media Format SDK which is included in Windows SDK versions as old as 6.0A. This is because the windows media filters (which include the mp3 parser) use their own interfaces for meta-data access instead of IAMMediaContent defined in the DirectShow sdk which supports only a limited set of properties.
