How to know in which tagg version a file's metadata is written

DjSurda · August 10, 2025, 10:29am

Hello

In options/configuration I can select the Tagg Versions I want MP3tag to read/write etc.

But when I see the metadata of a track “cmd+t” it does not show which tagg versions the track is using (as Windows version used to do).

So, how can I see the tagg versions a song is using?

Thank you

You can see it via the Tag column in Mp3tag's File List.

I do not see it.

If I am not wrong the tag column is the right side of the window. These are all the columns I have active. Can you please tell me which column shows the tagg versions?

Thank you.

It's the third column, Filename, Path, Tag, ... and shows, e.g., ID3v2.4 (ID3v1, ID3v2.4).

This indicates that ID3v2.4 is displayed (the value before the parentheses %_tag_read%) and that the file contains ID3v1 and ID3v2.4 (the value inside parentheses %_tag%

Ouch yeah sorry for not seeing

BTW Would be very useful to see the tag versions on the Extended Taggs window cmd+t. Hope you can add it on following MP3tag versions.
