[Bug 90656] Re: rhythmbox writes unreadable id3tags

[Chris Rose]

Thank you for your report. I am closing this bug because it is not
actually a bug. Rhythmbox (well, GStreamer) writes id3v2.4 tags which
EasyTag / BMP can not read properly. EasyTag uses id3lib which is broken
and unmaintained. It has only support for id3v2.3. Unfortunatly the
author does not seem to want to port it to use taglib which is a
maintained tag library.

I would recommend not writing tags with Rhythmbox if you need to edit
them with EasyTag (or any other id3lib tool) or to use Quod Libet to
edit your tags which is quite a nice tag editor.
