* Convert textual frames to/from the currently used character set The character set is deduced from the locale settings. It can also be set explicitly using the --charset option. * New option --broken-8bit-encoding Use this option for files where textual frames are stored as ISO-8859-1, but are actually using another 8-bit encoding. The argument to this option is the name of the enchoding actually used. In query mode, this option helps display such frames properly. Use it with the --fixup option to fix such frames in the file. * New option --encoding Specifies encoding to store textual frames in ID3 tags. * New option --fixup Modifies the ID3 v2 tag so that it can be understood by most devices. * The --convert option can be used to remove unnecessary ID3 formats. For example, if the file input.mp3 contains both version 1 and 2 tags, the following will remove version 1 tags: idest --convert=2 input.mp3 * Fix processing of unknown frames. * Fix operation of setpic and pic modules with Guile 2.x. * Improve documentation
Idest is an ID3 Edit and Scripting Tool, a command line utility for manipulating ID3 tags. The utility allows to create new tags, to view, modify or delete the existing ones. It also provides a flexible scripting capability.
