After installing WMP Tag Plus, MPEG4, FLAC, Vorbis and WavPack files will be added to the WMP library, together with the tags that they contain. When you edit their tags in the library, the changes will be saved back to the files too.
With this plug-in, using files of these formats in WMP becomes completely seamless, you probably won't even notice the difference with the default supported formats such as MP3 or Windows Media Audio! For example, WMP Tag Plus allows you to use WMP's Advanced Tag Editor to edit the tags of MPEG4, FLAC, Vorbis and WavPack files, something that wasn't possible with older tag support plug-ins for WMP.
Another problem with these older plug-ins was that they didn't read the track length of files of the new formats, and that you usually couldn't seek such files while they were playing. WMP Tag Plus addresses both of these issues.
Changes in WMP Tag Plus 1.2 :
- Fixed: possible crash while accessing the file properties of a media file from within Windows Media Player 11.
• WMP Tag Plus 1.1
- Fixed: WMP Tag Plus failed to correctly write tag changes to certain FLAC files.
- Updated the included TagLib to version 1.6.1, which fixes some other small bugs.
Important Notes :
• Please bear in mind that WMP Tag Plus only adds metadata support, and that the following additional packages might need to be installed to enable WMP to play the new formats:
-
FLAC and
Vorbis: the Xiph.org DirectShow filters
- MPEG4:
Haali Matroska Splitter together with
FFDShow
-
WavPack: the DirectShow filter (
CoreWavPack) at the official WavPack website
• The WMP Tag Plus plug-in is written for
Windows Media Player 11 or higher.
