Post id3tag info not really working when playing from net. folder
Hello there, there is reaelly strange behaviour when playing music frm network shared folder.

1. MP3 id3 tags are showing up somehow screwed for some MP3s. Seams like some ID3 tag misunderstanding... be removing the whole tag area from file and readding it back with foobar on my PC it was in MP3 case solved

2. there is not id3tag track name showed anywhere on the playscreen... Am I missing something? Why is that, guys, didn't you forgot something here? It is pretty wired to show file name instead of track name from id3. My filenames are pretty complex coz I am using my library also when mixing music and I want to have a lot of info on file name level. So I am not going to rename whole music album just to make sure to have some resonable info showed up when playuing from mini2... This sounds deffinelty like issue to me. Ad the filed to the GUI!!!

3. The id3tags works just and only with some MP3, it does not work with flac files or even my oggs at all... This is also i think MAJOR Mistake... Pleas implement id3tag support for all supported music file formats. Sinc ID3tags are most common used tagging format, I bet this is going to drive many users crazy!!!

Be careful what you wish for. ID3 tags are inherently MP3-specific, and other (universally superior) metadata schemes are normally used for other file types; however, there was a period where the ID3v2 was being pushed for use in Ogg, and support for this is almost certainly not what you want.

FLAC and Vorbis use Vorbis comment blocks, and that's what really needs to be supported.


And yes. Support these, please. I think I tried the UPnP-parsed metadata at some point and found that the tracks came up in alphabetical order rather than track order, so that wasn't a good solution either. Although that could have been another player -- I've tried so many, lately.
