As I recall, the primary reason for discarding ID3v2 frames is that they're just unreadable. Corrupt ID3v2 frames may cause the remainder of the tag to be discarded, as I recall. If it were the first frame then the entire tag would be ignored. I would suggest stripping the ID3v2 tag manually, ie not using a program to do so, because if a frame is corrupt then it may incorrectly cause a chunk of MP3 data to also be removed from the front of the file. Note that iTunes is known to generate corrupt ID3v2 frames and SlimServer's ID3v2 frame processor will attempt to identify these and recover. The recovery may not be successful, however, and frames may be dropped. -- gerph ------------------------------------------------------------------------ gerph's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1819 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=38769 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/ripping
