The difference between 2.3 and 2.4 are minor, but enough to foil a 2.3 editor encountering a sync-safe integer in a 2.4 frame. The sure fire way to see the difference is to open the mp3 in a hex editor before and after edits, and compare changes. Alternatively, you could use BulkID3 (<a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/bulkid3/">http://sourceforge.net/projects/bulkid3/</a>) with the --print-only flag, to show all tag data in the file.<div>

<br>
Just getting resubscribed to the list after some time away.<br>
<br>
I'm having a strange problem re: amarok vs. id3v2 (the command line<br>
tool).<br>
<br>
I've discovered lately that if I modify a file's tags in amarok, id3v2<br>
no longer sees them afterwards. It's as if the id3v2 tags have been<br>
completely blown away by amarok.<br>
<br>
Someone on one of the FreeBSD mailing lists suggested that this may be<br>
due to amarok's dependence on taglib (which allegedly uses id3 2.4),<br>
whereas the id3v2 tool uses 2.3.<br>
<br>
Is this a likely explanation? Are the differences so great that the<br>
older id3v2 tool can no longer grok the newer tags?<br>
<br>
Thanks, this problem is driving me nuts. :-)<br>
