Hi Philip,
I see that you are working on support of ID3 v3 tag. Do you have any ETA when to expect it? Also I wanted to ask you an example how to add fields? You have only 5 fields, including the artwork available. How to add for example Genre, or Album Artist (for audiobooks) and others?
Another question is about license - can your library be used in other applications (including commercial apps) and under what conditions?

I apologize for the unclear licensing. I'm releasing this under an MIT license. So you are free to use this software however you wish.

I'm making good progress v3 now. Hopefully I'll be able to push a stable version to master in the next couple weeks.

As for adding more fields, that is fairly easy. I'm just trying to get the essentials (at least what I think are the essentials) out first. After that though, I'll definitely add more. On that note, what fields would you like most?

Hi Philip, That is good news! I was testing your framework - works great! The only luck is in the supported ID3 versions (currently v2.2 only), and fields flexibility. Sorry for the critics :)). Your next version will support both 2.2 and 2.3, correct?

I was trying to add new fields, but failed... Can you please send me or
post an example how to add new fields? Explanations would make it easier.

As far as what default field list should be I think just the standard
iTunes set (attached file) would be enough. It would make it greater if it
will have some sort of mechanism to add or remove fields.

Thank you!!!

Larry

That's correct. My next version will parse both v2.2 and v2.3 ID3 tags.

As of now, the only fields you can edit are Title, Artist, Album, Lyrics, and Artwork.

Each new field will have to be programmed before being able to use it.

ID3Edit works very fine.
Is there a chance in future that Year and Length will be added?
Thank you for this great job!
