Is it possible to change V2.4 tags to V2.3 using MP3tag ?

Yes. It's very easy to do.

In File \> Options Tags \> Mpeg \> Write, set the ID3v2 type to ID3v2.3 (either ISO or UTF). Then all you have to do is highlight the files and hit ![:mt_save:](https://community.mp3tag.de/uploads/default/original/1X/9a524114a0a7cfb94ed95e08e42778afb83a895f.png ":mt\_save:") 'Save'.
