Hi Germi I've written a custom version of MC using getID3 library to automatically input song name, length, genre etc from embedded ID3 tags in MP3 files. May I suggest you look into it to incorporate to the official release?
You can get the library here: http://getid3.sourceforge.net/ I'm not sure about the licensing situation though to use it in a commercial package.

0I know the library, I've been working with it sometime, and wanted to add it on a future version, but its a little more delicated than what you may think (not all ID3 tags are stored the same way, so maybe the script can work on some files, and not on others.)
that's why I want to take a little more time to test it
I'll be glad to take a look at your customization
if you want to send it to me -

0My hack is definitely not elegant and it only works with ID3v2 tags. It won't work with stuff like ogg, wmv etc. But since all my files are mp3 formated with ID3v2, I can live with that. What's a good email address I should send my code to?
I think a good way to solve multiple file support problem is to use the $info = getid3_lib::CopyTagsToComments($file) function in the library so you can look for artist, title etc in the $info['comments_html'] array. But that function does seem to have issue with UTF8 characters. -
