Software Update: Mp3tag 2.84

Florian Heidenreich has released version 2.84 of Mp3tag. With this program, the meta tags of the most common music formats can be modified. Support is provided for ID3v1, ID3v2.3, ID3v2.4, mp4, wma, Vorbis comments and Ape tags. Furthermore, the file names can be modified on the basis of those tags and playlists can be generated. The following changes and improvements have been made in this release:

New:

• Added web sources framework functions to check if output contains content via ‘ioutput’ and ‘ifnotoutput’.
• Added $distance(x,y) scripting function to compute edit distance between strings x and y.
• Added support for Nero-style MP4 chapters.
• Added Discogs cover-only tag source for search via Discogs Release ID.
• Added Discogs cover-only tag source for search via album name.

Changes:

• Added ABSENT as synonym for MISSING in Filter and updated documentation. (#22766)
• Improved MP4 tagging compatibility.
• Updated Opus to version 1.2.1.
• Made cue sheet handling fully transparent so that it doesn’t require artificially indexed filenames anymore.
• Extended Discogs tag source with fallback detection of secondary images if no primary image exists. (#22475)
• Modified dialog for adding cover-art from files to raise warning message if file doesn’t exist.
• Added check to Discogs tag source if query gave any results which results in correct error message.

Fixed:
