Winamp ID3 Tag Compatibility?

hipopony66 · 24th June 2002, 22:35

Hey, I hope this is the correct place for this post. I need some help. I'm writing a Visual Basic program that incorporates Winamp. I have written a module to read and write ID3v1 tags, but I have learned that winamp uses ID3v1.1 tags. If anyone could have a look at this module and help me out it would be much appreciated. I'm trying to incorporate the TRACK field, and get the CORRECT genre categories to ensure compatibility with winamp. Any help is extremely appreciated. (I had to zip up the *.bas file so I could upload it here) Thanks

heh, I had to hack your file back together just to get it to work, you left out a few parts, heh, but now I see your problem, I'm workin on it, but I'm not liking what I think is up with it.

ok, I got it by doing this
chnage Comment to a fixed length of 29, then trim the null at the end, then it will show the Track, then change Genre to a Byte
