Multiple Genre Tags: Imports do not parse VorbisComment and ID3v2.4 multiple fields correctly
What is the problem you are facing?
Uploading .opus
(VorbisComment) and .mp3
(id3v2.4) tracks with multiple genre fields are expected to be parsed into multiple genre tags. Instead, funkwhale 1.3.4
only tags the first genre to the track.
Picard automatically tags .opus
tracks with multiple fields. Given that Picard is the recommended tagging application, funkwhale should support proper multiple tagging of .opus
with VorbisComment.
Upcoming implementations of multiple artists (#1568) possibly face the same issue.
What are the possible drawbacks or issues with the requested changes?
None that I can think of, proper VorbisComment and ID3v2.4 support will certainly benefit the project going forward and its interoperation with Picard.
Context
Possible workaround: Tagging multiple genres in one field by a ,
, ;
or /
seperator currently makes funkwhale create tags for all of them, but should not be considered the preferred way of tagging multi-valued fields.
