** Description changed: Binary package hint: beep-media-player Open the attached MP3 in beep, right click on the track in beep's playlist and select "View Track Details". beep will fill the "Title", "Artist", etc. fields with "garbage". I can see that the ID3 tags aren't invalid (at least not completely) because XMMS and kid3 (and probably other music players / tag editors) display the tag's values properly. Note that, beep is based off (a fork, I guess) of XMMS, so this might provide some hints in locating the bug. + + I'm not certain, but it looks like the same "junk data" is always placed + in each of the Title, Artist, and Album fields. The data in the Year + field looks to differ only by its length; it is truncated to four + characters. The Comment field is empty, but I suspect this is because + there is no Comment field present in the ID3 tags. + + Another interesting behaviour that I noticed: When I open this file in + beep, the second time that I "View Track Details" I get a different set + of junk data - the data seems to change slightly each time that I view + the details. It seems to "change the most" between the 1st viewing and + 2nd viewing, though. Very strange...
