    How do I find out what WAV metadata fields...

    ... DBPA will read/write when converstion to/from WMA? Since this is for a strictly managed project, I need a spec, rather than relying on trial and error findings.

    Thanks.

    You mention WMA and Wave, please clarify as these two are very separate.

        Depends on the tag stored in wave, if it is dbpoweramp which wrote it, then it can be any tag value.

          Along this line...I own a radio station and I purchased a large library of wav files from another station that is closing up shop and as I am trying to add them to my playlist the titles, artists, etc are all messed up...I can get the artist name to display in my playlist but I cannot get the title...what appears is something like

          A1001046 as the song name...I do however see the song name in the "properties" of the file...anyway to suggest that I extract that title and bring it to the front?

            We have a [ID Tag Update] codec which can map between fields, it sounds like it is stored with the wrong field name.

              Meaning e.g. converting WMA to WAV and back will preserve all tags?

                dBpoweramp will yes.
