This page is under construction. Please do not rely on the content being accurate or trustworthy.

This page attempts to document a useful mapping between the tagging schemes used on various file formats. The aim is to allow tag data (metadata) to be transferred between file formats without information loss.

It is organised into categories of data, and within each category the ordering is roughly as follows: 1. tags that apply to a wider range of data (e.g. a whole CD) come before tags that apply to a narrower range of data (e.g. one track). 2. tags are sorted alphabetically where this is relevant 3. tags that are more widely supported come before tags that are less widely supported


Due to the re-purposing of ID3v2's TPE2 as Album Artist, we have no field to store the name of the Orchestra, yet we have a dedicated field for the Conductor.
