Parsing the sheets isn't the problem, I have already done a fair bit in that regard. It's reading tags which is tricky, without taglib. If you people think I should go ahead without it then fine. For example, I need the length of the track in order to set the end time of the final track. Now since I can't read any sort of metadata information from the cue sheet I'll have to read the tags from the associated mp3 or flac file. I don't think this is a good workaround. > You said Amarok had cue sheet support once. How was it done then. You might find it in Amarok itself. > It was there in the 1.x series apparently.
