Unfortunately, it displayed the infamous <no artist> and <no > title> data. Did I do something wrong? We could start a soap opera on this topic, as this seems to appear over and over again: 1. Rockbox supports both id3v1 and id3v2 2. The id3v2 support is limited to the first 300 bytes of the file. Some rippper programs tend to add very big tags first and then the important ones Rockbox wants to read end up beyond the first 300 bytes and then they remain unknown. 3. If you believe that the tags you don't see *is* within 300 bytes, then please make the mp3 file available for one of us developers to try out. 4. The 300-byte limit is subject to be removed in a future version. -- Daniel "Bagder" Stenberg -- http://rockbox.haxx.se/Received on 2002-08-27 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
