By removing the id3v2 tags from your files.

There is a lot, almost 6k files.
I don't want a radical way to do this... and if in the near future i would like to have all of them again?

To be honest I don't really understand what your problem is. Either you use id3v2 or ape tags on your mp3 files. There's no need for both. If your mp3s are tagged with id3v2 tags you can put them all in a playlist, select them all, right click>Tagging> MP3 tag types: Uncheck id2v2 and select APEv2. The information from your id3v2 tags will be copied over into apev2 tags and the id3v2 tags will be removed.

Alright, almost that i want...

I have 2 file types in my PC: Musepack and MP3.
All my MPC files are tagged only with APEv2, and all my MP3 are tagged with one/two/three of the 3 (ID3v1, ID3v2.x and APEv2). i don't want to touch in the first one (Musepack).

For the rest: I want to remove ID3v2.x from being displayed (but don't want to remove the tags from the files). I want to see which files are tagged by ID3v1 and which are tagged by ID3v2.x, so doing this i can see which files are tagged or not, and complete it!

I suggest adding the following to your playlist script (if you are using Columns UI, you can of course put in a separate column):
CODE
$if($stricmp(%codec%, mp3),%tagtype%)

If you sort your playlist by this, things should get even easier.

Reading of ID3v2 tags on MP3 files cannot be disabled.

Can the priority be changed so APE2 is displayed when both APE2 and ID3v2 are present?
