Hi everyone.
Is it possible that winamp has problems dealing with lyrics3 tags? Because I just noticed this weird behaviour:
This is the very end of a .mp3 file with a lyrics3 tag ( http://www.id3.org/Lyrics3v2 ) followed by an id3v1 tag identified by the 3 letters "TAG" (and merely denoting the artist as "Waldeck"):

And this is how winamp displays the tags:

What you can see is, that winamp displays the id3v1 tag correctly. So far so good. However the .mp3 file in question here does not have an id3v2 tag (I could upload a screenshot of the beginning of the file, too, but it would take up a lot of space here). Winamp seems to agree, because the checkbox for id3v2 is disabled, but you can see that winamp reads the content of the lyrics3 tag at the end of the file ("this isn't maybe (mushroom dive's lo fly push up") and used it as the id3v2 title.
Is this a bug?
Or a "feature"
?
Now I can imagine what devs will say, obviously ...
but I'd be looking forward to a straightforward answer, thank you.
PS: Sorry, I don't have the latest version of winamp and am unable to install it at the moment, but I wanted to submit this issue nevertheless.
