Hi,
I figure that would be best as well. I haven't looked at the existing ID3 extension in quite some time, so I can't really say what it would take to merge them together. Perhaps a few #defines to enable the extra abilities of id3lib if it's present during the build or something. If the extension's author was really in to that in the first place, I guess.
I'm one of the authors of id3, if you manage to merge the functionality in, I'm fine with that. Stephan

I am the other one. :) I entirely agree with Stephan. IMHO it would be best to provide an extension that is independent from id3lib for id3v1 and uses the id3lib for id3v2 tags. I started to code support for id3v2 tags without id3lib but that isn't big fun and very time consuming, too. +1 from me for merging the two extensions. Regards, Carsten
