    Wave File Metadata ???

    We have a large number of digital audio files - some on Digital Audio Players and some on PCs. On our Windows 10 PC I have noticed that File Explorer shows which .wav files were ripped wit dbpoweramp. The dbpowerampinfo shows up on both the ID-Tag and Audio-Properties tabs. I assume this data was written as part of the metadata when we ripped the CD.

    I have a Visual Basic program that provides access to .wav file metadata. I am able to read fields like Creation Date, Time / Length, Genre, etc. but I have not been able to figure out how to access the encoding field that identifies the file as being created by dbpoweramp. Does anybody know how to capture the encoding info with a Visual Basic script? I guess I could manually inspect every .wav file with Windows Explorer and then enter the encoding data in a field that I don't care abut in the metadata.

    If you can provide any assistance, I thank you,

    Install Audio Info,
