Id3v2.4 isn't supported in the library. I did do a hack on mine sometime 
ago to allow it to *read* those tags which are common to both v2.3 and 
v2.4 in a v2.4 tag. Idlib is pretty much dead these days, I would 
suggest using another library - taglib for example. I ported my code to 
use this about 2 years ago.
