Hello all,

I just tried amarok 1.2beta2 and I am very happy to see that I can read the files I ripped with iTunes, using gstreamer (format: m4a). It\'s really great.

Only pbm: the tags. And it makes things difficult when there are plenty of tracks. Is there any plan on supporting the m4a tags? Is it Amarok\'s job or some other people? And who should I ask the question then?

Thanks again for your work,

Vincent

In amaroK tag reading is handled by TagLib.

If you want TagLib to support m4a, you should submit a wish for the product taglib on http://bugs.kde.org.

Thanks a lot,

I found a wish/bug which refers to this pbm:

Bug 89045: tag reading from m4a / acc files

I added some votes to convince the guys in chrage to change it.
I think it would be a useful feature.

Note that (I quote):
\"
rhythmbox 0.8.5 reads metadata from m4a without problem, so it is possible - but compared to amarok, rhythmbox is a very primitive tool i\'m not going to use, if possible
\"

Thanks for your fast reply,

Vincent
