In etch, MC shows me the ID3 tags for mp3 files in its default
configuration. I haven't touched this.
>From ~/.mc/bindings:
regex/\.(mp3|MP3|Mp3)$
Open=run-mailcap audio/mpeg:%f
#Open=if [ "$DISPLAY" = "" ]; then mpg123 %f; else (xmms %f &);
fi
View=%view{ascii} mpg123 -vtn1 %f 2>&1 | sed -n
'/^Title/,/^Comment/p;/^
MPEG/,/^Audio/p'
So I can see the tags with F3 and play them with Enter.
This is different for you?
