Title: FLAC & MP3 Tag Contents
Post by: PaulZ on June 21, 2011, 06:25:37 am
Having ripped all my CD’s with MC to FLAC, I understand that some metadata / tags are stored in the MC database and some in the FLAC file.  Four questions:

1. Which metadata / tags are stored in the FLAC file?
2. When a FLAC file is converted to MP3 …. Which common fields are in the MP3 file?
3. Does iTunes and Zune recognize all the to MP3 metadata tags?
4. If I want to get sub-genre tags to my MP3 players … what field in MC should I use? (I’m using “Style” to designate instruments e.g. piano, harmonica etc.)
