Hi, I just converted a large batch of mp3s to m4bs, because they are audio books. During the conversion, my tags were lost. I used the tag editor to put them back (with the option in the right click menu), and I had no trouble inputting tag info, but the tags don't show up either in the folder where the files are kept or in iTunes when I play the tracks. The tags do show up when I check the file's properties, though. Can anyone suggest how to make the tag info show up in iTunes? Also, is there a way to preserve tag info when converting? Thanks!!

Re: tagging m4b files
Did you follow the instructions beside the m4b codecs in Codec Central:Requires the above m4a codec to read / write ID Tags from .m4b files as well as to decode .m4b files.
Download the m4a codec and install it, then you should get tags with your files. -

Re: tagging m4b files

Re: tagging m4b files
ok, I think I found the solution.
"Force LC AAC" encoding worked for the files I tested.
just for the archive.
