Title: WHY "Media Center' in ALL my comment tags?
Post by: zevele10 on September 18, 2003, 09:37:10 am: ALL my songs have Media Center in Comment field
and
the built number in second Comment field.

WHY THIS???

And why ,when using MC we DO NOT see that there is it in the tags?

Quite really upset by it.

Post by: zevele10 on September 18, 2003, 02:19:11 pm: OK - was a bug i understand.

In fact ,to have this tags is not that much a big deal .
But to discover it made me very upset.

Matt ,i'am not sure that you see this Comment fied.
Or ,not all my tracks have it.
Anyway ,not of such importance

Post by: Cmagic on September 18, 2003, 11:11:12 pm: That's right Zev,

ID3V2 COMM tags are not Comment fields. They are rather generic fields that can contains any data.

In this case the real (MC specifics) tag names that you see are "Tool Name" and "Tool Version" wih simply tell with which version of MC the tag was created. This can be quite useful, in particular when debugging a taggin problem. The real comment field is COMM(Comments).

as an example, here is the format info of an MPC file with APE tags. You can see again the "Tool Name" and "Tool version" tags under their own names.
