    ID3 v2 tags?

    I am quite surprised I am unable to locate anything that will allow me to read/write ID3 v2 tags using VB.NET.. All there is is a bunch of VB5/6 classes which all deal with V1 tags.. nothing to work with V2 tags.. Not even a wrapper for id3lib.. Am I missing someting??

    You can write your own ID3 reader(s) very easily. All you need to do is go to a certain part of the file and read in the info.

    This should help you: http://id3lib.sourceforge.net/id3/

    As I need to both read/write tags I was hoping I could find a class or library I can use.. As these are available for most other languages I guess I expected I could fine one for VB.NET. As I said I'm somewhat surprised there is nothing..

    I just recently made a class to handle ID31 tags version 1.0 and 1.1 but that was because the mp3 player in my car only reads v1 tags. If you want that let me know and I'll post it.

    you could port one from vb 6
    Tips:
    • Google is your friend! Search before posting!
    • Name your thread appropriately... "I Need Help" doesn't cut it!
    • Always post your code!!!! We can't read your mind!!! (well, at least most of us!)
    • Allways Include the Name and Line of the Exception (if one is occuring!)
    • If it is relevant state the version of Visual Studio/.Net Framwork you are using (2002/2003/2005)

    Porting one from VB6 would be an option, but the question is which one.. I've seen a couple and getting one to work finding it does not do what I'd like is kindof a bummer

    So if I were to go this route does anyone have suggestions as to which?
