Question about ID3v2 #224
-
|
I looked at a ID3v2 file tagged with lofty-rs in a hex editor and while I did find the values I entered for Artist, Album and Song Title. I didn't find the ID3 header, nor did I find the names of the frames. For some reason the file did show the right tags in easytag, but the track total seemed to be gone. Why is there no ID3 header, and how are the frames encoded? |
