I'm using lame to convert an mp3 to another one with 128kbps as follows

lame -h -b file.mp3

everything succeeds, but I get this problem

ID3v2 found. Be aware that the ID3 tag is currently lost when transcoding

is there a way to keep the ID3 tag?
thanks

Transcoding/converting your MP3 files with Foobar2000 will preserve the ID3 tags.

as far as I understand foobar2000 is for windows... I'm looking for something for linux...
