Foobar2000:ID3 Tag Mapping

From Hydrogenaudio Knowledgebase
Revision as of 13:46, 8 June 2006 by Prodoc (talk | contribs) (Added notes)

This page lists all ID3v2.4 tag frames natively supported by foobar2000 as of version 0.9.0. The 'Field Name' column indicates the name to be used in the foobar2000 'Properties' or 'Masstagger' window. The 'ID3v2.4 Frame' column indicates in which ID3v2.4 frame the value will be stored.

Note that foobar2000 0.9 does not write ID3v2.3 tags; the ID3v2.3 Frame column indicates how foobar2000 reads this version of the standard.
