Knowing that Foobar did not natively support Id3v2 tags... I just assumed that if I converted all of my Id3v2 to Id3v1 tags, foobar would recognize the information... Alas... A good chunk of my library is still tagless, even though I know that all of the songs are tagged with both Id3v1 and 2.... Does foobar ONLY recognize APEv2 tags???... If so, by what means should I go about converting the information from the Id3 tags to APEv2 (ideally without losing the Id3v2 tags since my mp3 player uses those).

foo_id3v2.dll and/or Preferences > Playback > Input > Standard Inputs > "MP3 tag writing"

It sounds like you're using 0.8.3.

That version uses a plug in (foo_id3v2) to read those tags. It is included in the special installer (I believe...).

This thread may help, as will this thread.

Edit: synth7 beat me...

would upgrading to the newer beta version help my situation in some way?

Nope, foobar2000 recognizes ID3v1 too. Select all your files, choose Properties, and reload info from files.

If you want foobar2000 to read ID3v2, get the ID3v2 plugin.

If you want foobar2000 to write ID3v2, you might want to check out the new beta.

...and don't forget that this is a very advanced forum, they have a feature called "search" which can be found at the top-right of the forum

*me ducks and hides*

Actually I did some comprehensive searching before posting... But I could'nt find the exact answer... Sorry about that.

See here if you've used mp3gain on your files.

edit: Oops. Dupe.

NEVERMIND... I read what to do from this thread as suggested... Taking out the undo information in mp3gain was key... Thanks a bunch you guys, and sorry for being a troublesome one

At least you weren't asking about joint stereo
