How to tag dff files (ie DSD files)?
« on: June 14, 2012, 08:53:11 pm »

Any feasible ways to tag dff files (ie DSD files) with MC or other software compatible with MC?

To my knowledge dff files can't be tagged I have tried a few different ways including using the file properties/details window in explorer and nothing has worked for me.

If you use DSF instead, Media Center can read and write ID3v2 tags.

Yes, for these reasons I have moved whatever DIFF I had (maybe 40 albums or so, not much) to DSF.  I have discussed this on forums ad nauseum. I wish download sites like Channel Classics would use DSF; Cookie's Blue Coast does.  :)

And even outside of MC, DSF files (and their ID3 tags) carry metadata to MAC (Audirvana plus, etc) and Linux MPD (clients like mPAd, Gnome, etc).  Heck, I began as an MC user simply for DSF tagging.  :)

So DSF has the ability to contain metadata and DFF doesn't. Thanks for clarification.
