Version 2.0.3.0 January 10, 2008 This release of TagLib# features many bug fixes and a complete rework of the documentation to better serve the Windows community. Fixes include: * Make Asf.Tag enumerable. * Don't duplicate genres stored in "(0)Blues" format. * Save Id3v2.RelativeVolumeFrame as XRVA and XRV in ID3v2.3 and ID3v2.2. * Insert new comments before other comment frames in Id3v2.Tag * Use CultureInfo.CurrentCulture to get the correct comment language in Id3v2.Tag. * Skip iTunes comments in Id3v2.CommentsFrame. * Save multi-string values as a single box with a semicolon separator in Mpeg4.AppleTag to improve compatability with iTunes. * Make the Id3v2.Tag.DefaultVersion = 3 because most commercial programs have some crippling ID3v2.4 problem. * Added Id3v2.Tag.IsCompilation * Don't crash on misformatted field in XiphComment. * Recognize the .divx extension as a RIFF file. * Use one byte rather than four to store compilation in Mpeg4.AppleTag. * Don't check the image format flags anymore in Mpeg4.AppleTag, just use the file contents. * Don't crash in NonContainer.EndTag when the file is less than 128 bytes. * Allow saving of multi-page comment packets in Ogg through massive rewrite of pagination. * Allow correct reading of multi-page comment packets in Ogg.Bitstream. * Use try/finally on all load and save operations to prevent files from being left open. * Produce correct output on empty ID3v1 tag. * Remove broken Id3v1.Tag.IsEmpty. * src/TagLib/Riff/List.cs: Make sure fields are cleared when SetValue * Clear value when null is passed in Riff.List.SetValue. * Make Riff.DivXTag.Clear clear the title. * Read genres correctly in Riff.MovieIdTag. * Complete codec descriptions for RIFF and ASF files. * Fix reading of UTF16-BE Id3v2.SynchronizedLyricsFrames. * Throw NotImplementedException for private frames in ID3v2.2. * Fix writing Id3v2.GeneralEncapulatedObjectFrame in UTF16. * Added support for multiple non-indexed artists in ID3v2.3 * Correctly parse nil separated UTF-16BE strings. * Allow parsing of variable length years in Ape.Tag. * Fix writing of Mpeg4 files by correctly reading in values to Mpeg4.FileParser.UtdaTree. * Allow parsing of all year lengths in Mpeg4.AppleTag and correctly clear zeroed values. * Use Semicolons rather than commas in Tag.Joined* to reflect the behavior of Windows Media Player. * Remove "WM/GenreID" from Asf.Tag when storing a new genre. * Switch ordering of check in looking for ASF content descriptors to emphasize name rather than order. * Don't throw exception on zero byte strings in ByteVector.ToString (). * Use ContentDescriptionObject.Copyright in Asf.Tag. * Switch order of play_duration and send_duration in Asf.HeaderObject. This is backwards from the specification but conforms to actual files. * Don't count preroll in ASF durations. * Don't double-count position when counting frames. * Ensure Id3v2.FrameHeader is converting headers from versions 2 and 3. * Always set the encoding to default in Id3v2.Tag when writing a frame to prevent misencoding. * Stopped ArgumentOutOfRangeExceptions from occuring when corrupt RelativeVolumeframe is encountered. * Fixed rendering of Ape.Item on non-latin characters. * Added new constructors to Picture to obsolete CreateFromFile, CreateFromPath. * Changed Asf.Tag to write large pictures to the ASF Metadata Library Object rather than ignoring them. * Changed the way Mpeg.AudioHeader checked for Xing identifier to prevent first change exception if none was found. * Use StringBuilder instead of string addition. * Don't crash if Mpeg4.IsoHandlerBox does not contain a nil delimiter. * Limit scanning in Mpeg.AudioFile to 4096 bytes of audio stream to prevent reading whole file if corrupt. * Replace protected CombinedTag constructor with public one to allow compiling in Orcas. * Include MonoDevelop files in distributed package. * Correctly parse beats per minute when they contain floating point numbers. Added features: * Added support for Fraunhofer VBRI header. (Authored by hwahrmann.) * Obsoleted Tag.Duplicate in favor of Tag.CopyTo which can be extended to provide better support for copying between matching tag types. * Added ByteVector.UseBrokenLatin1Behavior that when true reads tags from the system encoding instead of Latin1. * Added support for reading APE files. (Authored by hwahrmann.) * Added generic Id3v2.GetFrames<T>() to reduce casting. * Added support for one of each type of cover image in Ape.Tag * Added recognition of BMP and GIF images in Picture. * Added Id3v2.PopularimeterFrame capable of handling ratings from Windows Media Player. * Added Id3v2.Tag.UseNumericGenres which can be disabled to prevent genres from being written as indices. * Added File.InvariantStartPosition and File.InvariantEndPosition to mark the edges of the media portion of the file.

Fixes include: * Read AttachedPictureFrame correctly when UTF-16 encoded. * Stop infinite recursion with rare Xing header. * Add "VBR" to the MPEG Audio description if a Xing header is present. * Update unit tests for changes in 2.0.1. * Fix Artists (added in 2.0.1) to point to Performers. Was pointing nowhere. * Make ByteVector.Find return correctly if (data.Count == pattern.Count + offset). * Set to this.data instead of data in PrivateFrame constructor. Outstanding bugs: * MPEG-4 tags do not show up in Nokia N95 Phone. * Large pictures should be stored in the ASF HeaderExtensionObject. Outstanding feature requests: * Add slow read support to get correct information from VBR MP3's lacking Xing headers. * Add TagLib.Tag.Key * Add TagLib.Id3v2.PopularimeterFrame * Support ID3v2 chapters. * Return invariant data sections for a file.
