tagged (MP3::Tag)

File Release Notes and Changelog

Release Name: 0.20

Notes:
tagged-0.20 contains:

* updated MP3::Tag modules. 

These modules can be used to read/change/write
ID3v1/ID3v1.1/ID3v2.3 tags of MP3 audio files. This new
version supports now also the use of MP3::Tag with perl on
windows. The last version didn't write the tags correctly
when used with windows.

  Also more ID3v2 frames are supported now, and an
additional manpage MP3::Tag::ID3v2-Data contains information
about which frames are how supported.
  The test program now does some additional tests to check
if MP3::Tag works (to be called with 'make test').


* added tk-tag.pl

 tk-tag.pl is a graphical interface to MP3::Tag and allows
you to view the tags of any MP3 audio files. This first
version supports only to change the filename and the
ID3v1/ID3v1.1 tags. Support for changing ID3v2.3 tags is
coming soon, because this is already supported by MP3::Tag.

Changes:
Release Name: 0.20 (beta)
=========================

--due to problems when run with perl on windows:

  * Added a second seek to ID3v1::write_tag, as windows
    writes at a wrong position otherwise

  * Setting Filehandle to binmode after opening a mp3 file 

  * ID3v2: write_tag creates a temp file (if neccessary) now
    in the same directory where the original mp3 files is
    located and not in /tmp


* Added tk-tag.pl, a graphical interface for MP3::Tag.
  tk-tag.pl is an alpha version

* Added a new manpage MP3::Tag::ID3v2-Data which contains
  information about the ID3v2 frames and the data returned
  by MP3::Tag::Id3v2::getFrame() 

* Frames RVRB ("Reverb"), COMR ("Commercial frame"), AENC
  ("Audio encryption"), GRID ("Group identification
  registration"), RBUF ("Recommended buffer size") and 
  SYTC ("Synchronized lyric/text") are now supported        

* Added some test to test.pl for creating new tags

* ID3v2::getFrameIDs returns now a hash reference, which
  contains the found frames. The keys are the 4 byte codes
  of the frames, which are needed for getFrame . The
  according values are the english (long) names of the
  frames.

* ID3v2::write_tag - Updating tagsize after writing tag 

* ID3v1::all() returns in array context all fields,
  otherwise only the song

* MP3::ID3v1::write_tag didn't returned an error if a file
  couldn't be opened for writing. Now it does.

* Renamed MP3::TAG to MP3::Tag following a suggestion of
  ANDK from CPAN

* Makefile.PL : Added that Compress::Zlib and File::Basename
  is needed for installation of MP3::Tag
