Hi,

I recently unslung my NSLU2 and installed libid3tag and mt-daapd on it. Things are running fine except ID3 tags of .mp3 files with embedded .jpg artwork are not being decoded properly. Every time I have one of such files, the server shows the filename as song name (filename.mp3) and no information is shown in the other fields. ..

I’ve just got mt-daapd working on an NSLU2 also (fine job Ron!!). I’m using iTunes 7.0 and I use Tag&Rename to write IDv2 tags (says in the blurb that is writes v2.3 and 2.4 tags for compatibility. My problem with artwork is that if I load the MP3 direct into iTunes then the artwork is displayed fine but through mt-daapd I get all the other tags except artwork.

thanks for any pointers – I can mail you an offending mp3?

from their help:

Tag&Rename have full support for ID3v2 tags including support for ID3v2.2, ID3v2.3 and ID3v2.4 (Tag&Rename always write ID3v2.3 tags because of compatibly with other software).
