Is there any way to add/edit ID3v2 tags in Foobar2000? Or are there any plans for such a feature? I'm using v0.7 beta 41. Thanks.

There are no plans at this time.

Any chance of including a converter from ID3v2 to APEv2? I'm all for not using ID3v2, but I'd like to have song titles in foobar that aren't consistently truncated...

For the clueless, I was being sarcastic.

Gosh yes, and I think probably bored too. I wouldn't bother with separate hyperlinks for each letter.
Edit: Damn, I should've stumbled on that surround plugin earlier.

Here's some steps to convert from ID3v2 to APEv2:

First, rename all of your mp3's that have ID3v2 tags (must have id3v2.dll installed) to a filename that contains all the data you want transfered:

%artist% - %album% - $num(%tracknumber%,2) - %title%
thats what i use.

Then use the masstagger to remove all tags. Remember if you have other tags you use put them in the filename too (or they will be lost).

Then set foobar to write tags in APEv2 format.

Now, masstag "guess tags from filename" using a matching string as the one you wrote from:

%artist% - %album% - %tracknumber% - %title%

ta-da you have APEv2-only tagged files. Enjoy.

No need to make things difficult, just load all files to playlist, select them, right click and select Database -> Rewrite file tags from database.

*sigh* Case, where were you when I was retagging 1000-ish mp3s?

Before this foo_id3v2 nonsense, there was something called Tag, which could recursively convert an entire directory worth of files from one tag format to another. (ID3v2 conversion was one-way.)

When you rewrite filetags from database, does Foobie remove the Id3v2-tags too or does it merely add an extra APE2-tag?

Or in other words? Can/Does Foobar remove Id3v2-tags after re-tagging?

Aren't Tag sources incorporated into fb2k (masstagger component)?

If foo_id3v2 component is installed those tags will get removed from formats that use foobar's APE tagging interface (mp2, mp3, mpc...). From Vorbis files ID3v2 is removed always on retagging.
