Hi all, I am using the UltraID3 library for my C# project which works for about 80% of my MP3 collection, however the other 20% (around 1000 mp3's) return from UltraID3.Read with neither version 1 or 2.3 tags found.
So this means that those ID values are not set, however Windows (7 Beta) appears to find information on them as it correctly shows the Album and Artist on those files that the UltraID3 library failed to.
How is Windows doing this? Is it just being clever and getting this information from the internet or something? Or is this information being stored differently from the standard(?) version 1 and 2.3 tags?
Can anyone suggest how I can get this information from the files?
