Any other restrictions then apply to particular players - and as there are so many, it is hardly possible to guarantee any size to be foolproof. One still has to try it with every target system. The only thing that can be said: MP3tag will support you to adapt the tags to the needs of the target system.

But with these dimensions you see that the limitation is not the script but the source.  
Still, it is up to you to select the best source for your purposes.
