front ends and .m4a

**smkau18** · 09-01-2005, 09:58 PM

Just wondering do any front ends here support ID3 tags for .m4a files?
What I mean by this is do the front ends allow u to browse your music library of .m4a files by:
Genre - Artist - album - song

All I have been able to find is

Artist - song
or
Genre - artist - song.....(no ALBUM)

each artists seperate albums are put into 1 folder of all their songs...the albums aren't seperate.

can anyone help?

I presume no one knows of any front ends that can do this?

frodoplayer 2.00 will have this supported as well. So I guess we will be waiting anxiously

Also, in Frodo, can't you create a tag file for songs. For example, if the song is song.mp4
Can't you create a tag file using notebook and name it song.mp4.txt or something like that? I seem to remember reading that somewhere in Frodo's forum. I don't know the format that the txt file has to be in (sorry)
