Hello,
I have some FLAC files that show (ID3V2) in the tag column -- (I tagged them with another program). There is nothing in the other columns (artist, title, album, etc).
I have tried to use Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V to copy the id3v2 tags to a vorbis comments, but nothing is copied. I can easily use Ctrl+X, which removes the id3v2 tag, but it won't copy.
Is there any way of copying/converting id3v2 tags to vorbis comments without having to retag everything?
If someone could please help me, I would really appreciate it
Bru

There's no reading support for ID3v2 on flac in Mp3tag.
Try frontah or foobar2000
