Yep, I know. This is true for every other tag, too. But I thought a quick'n'dirty hack *now* would be better than a proper solution some vague time in the future :-) Agree. Your patch is an improvement, and this problem is not a regression - it will not break older setups. Which other projects do use this method? I've just started to archive some of my music this way, that is one big flac file with an embedded cue sheet per CD. When I was looking for a tagging scheme, I found one with the track number directly attached (TITLE1) and one written like an array (TITLE[1]). Now that I'm looking for it, I can't find the scheme I've used. Probably it's been used by some project that isn't active any more :-/ Anyway, the $TAGNAME[$TRACKNUMBER] scheme seems to be supported by at least two relatively well-known programs, foobar2000 and SlimServer. If you want me to, I'll send you another patch to make mpd support this scheme instead of the other one. There doesn't seem to be an official standard. I'd say: search for TITLE[1] first (the most explicit form), then TITLE1, and finally fall back to TITLE. This makes sure MPD supports every possible standard, without breaking.

What will be there the next few days though is support for embedded cuesheets with cdtext info. Talking about getting lost in adding every possible way of tagging this stuff: What other players support parsing this CUESHEET tag? The $TAGNAME[$TRACKNUMBER] scheme seems to be supported by at least SqueezeCenter (formerly SlimServer) and foobar2000. metaflac --import-cuesheet-from=file will not only import the seekpoints but also add the whole cuesheet with cdtext infos as CUESHEET=file vorbis comment. metaflac 1.2.1 doesn't. Anyway: My changes shouldn't break anything, so I would like to see them stay there. However, since I didn't find any other player using the $TAGNAME$TRACKNUMBER scheme I suggested first, I don't object to removing it. cu Mario -- In a world without walls and fences, who needs Windows and Gates? -- Apps built with the Adobe(R) Flex(R) framework and Flex Builder(TM) are powering Web 2.0 with engaging, cross-platform capabilities.

Yes, definitely. Only standards guarantee good interoperability. And I'm not talking about interoperability with software which doesn't follow the standard. I don't care much about that. Anyway: My changes shouldn't break anything That's important. Until we have full cuesheet support, I don't object having a hack (which is supported by at least one other major media player). Mario, your patch is useful for some people, this is why I merged it. But since it's non-standard, we may decide to remove it at any time, when we have a better solution.

Hi Mario Lenz wrote: So a non- standard solution involving a complex task like developing a cuesheet parser is superior to another non- standard solution that simply changes a handfull of lines in your code? If you consider this a complex task than this must not mean that it's a difficult job for someone else. Writing a parser in lex/yacc is far superior and easier to do than a bunch of strcmp's nested in if statements. Despite that you might want to take a look at this: http://digitalx.org/cuesheetsyntax.php and http://developer.berlios.de/docman/display_doc.php?docid=517group_id=2130 This may not be a defined standard but it's well documented, on a common base and everybody sticks to it. What other players support parsing this CUESHEET tag? foobar2000 metaflac 1.2.1 doesn't. $ metaflac --version metaflac 1.2.1 You should check your installation.
