Vorbis Comment "DESCRIPTION" frame should be mapped to "COMMENT"
Last modified: 2009-06-17 09:36:55 UTC
Since many people (and software) use the Vorbis Comment tag frame "DESCRIPTION" instead of "COMMENT" *and* it is in the Xiph "proposed, minimal list of standard field names", we should map the "DESCRIPTION" into "COMMENTS", at least in FLAC.pm and Ogg.pm. See forum: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=59980 See Xiph.org: http://xiph.org/vorbis/doc/v-comment.html
Andy plans to review this and try to support it. He thinks the behavior will be that 'COMMENT' will be used if it's there, otherwise 'DESCRIPTION'
Sounds feasible. Many use COMMENT nowadays (Mp3tag, Picard), but there are still apps out there that use the more "official" DESCRIPTION frame.
We are now planning to make a 7.3.3 release. Please review your bugs (all marked open against 7.3.3) to see if they can be fixed in the next few weeks, or if they should be retargeted for 7.4 or future. Thanks!
Created attachment 4941 [details] Proposed patch for FLAC and OGG, could be retrofitted into 7.3.3 Proposed patch to Server/Slim/Formats/FLAC.pm and Ogg.pm to include DESCRIPTION.
Patch applied in 7.3.3 change 25609.
