Hi,

Is the following frame correct in ID2v2.4?

	  TPE1         size         flags  data length    S
0000000a  54 50 45 31  00 00 00 11  00 01  00 00 00 0d 03 53
	  tratovarius
0000001a  74 72 61 74 6f 76 61 72  69 75 73


It have 'Data length indicator' in frame format flags set. This frame
was written by libid3tag. I have tested some programs with tags with
such frames (winamp, windows media player, amarok, foobar, last
tag&rename..) and i was found only two programs that read such frames
correctly. They are foobar and amarok.
When i rewrite this tag in amarok, it is cut off data length with data
length indicator. After that this frame has been read correctly with
most of the listed programs, even by winamp.
I'm not shure about values of the  'frame size' (0x11) and  'data
length' (0x0d). Is they correct?
