Quote: If so, any way the plugin could detect which one is selected and complain/warn if it's not the one we want? I suggested this very thing to Patrick in Instant Messenger mere moments after confirming that the mpg123 pluging solved my problems. Quote: Am I the only one who can no longer edit ID3 tags in WinAmp with that plugin? I never tried, but the readme for mpg123 says: "* ID3 tag editor is not fully tested. Backup your file before using this function. *" So I suppose that would be expected behavior. Well, it's easy enough to switch back to the regular plugin (just put "MP3" back into the configuration screen for in_mp3.dll). _________________________ Tony Fabris

JBjorgen carpal tunnel Registered: 19/01/2002 Posts: 3583 Loc: Columbus, OH	I usually use MP3 Tag Studio anyway, but occasionally I see a problem and correct it on the fly in winamp. I'd rather have correct lyric timing though, and it's a pain to switch back and forth, so I'll just use MP3TS. _________________________ ~ John

JBjorgen carpal tunnel Registered: 19/01/2002 Posts: 3583 Loc: Columbus, OH	DOH! little did I realize, that's why the properties box was popping up when I tried to edit the ID3 tag. It was pulling up the WinXP tag editor. /me goes back to hide in his hole. _________________________ ~ John

frog51 pooh-bah Registered: 09/08/2000 Posts: 2091 Loc: Edinburgh, Scotland	On a quick bit of checking, some of mine appear to be fine, and a couple not so good so I'll go through and retime where necessary. I was going to do a quick spelling review anyway so ... sigh _________________________ Rory MkIIa, blue lit buttons, memory upgrade, 1Tb in Subaru Forester STi MkII, 240Gb in Mark Lord dock MkII, 80Gb SSD in dock

Just as a reminder... Even when Winamp was using the original in_mp3.dll instead of mpg123, if you corrected the ID3v2 tag in Winamp, it will erase your SYLT lyrics from the tag. I don't recall if MP3 Tag Studio preserves the SYLT tag by default, or if you must check a configuration option in order for it to do that. And I have no clue if using the tag editor built into Windows XP will harm the SYLT tag or not. Happy Birthday! _________________________ Tony Fabris

srhodes enthusiast Registered: 30/01/2000 Posts: 262 Loc: Derbyshire, UK	I was happy to stick with Winamp 2.74 until .... it seemed to work alright on the first night, the timing MP3s were perfect and I tagged a file which worked fine on the empeg. Tried to tag another file a couple of nights later and got the lag problem. I have now downloaded 5.08 lite and changed to the mpg123 plug-in. It works like a treat. Thanks to all who came up with (and refined) the solution. _________________________ Steve 2x80GB Mk II with Illuminated buttons
