Tags

This is an attempt to document which tags (in terms of low-level technical specification) faircamp supports/uses for its own fields, which ones it writes, etc. Note that this documentation might not necessarily be 100% complete or accurate (yet).

Known limitiations:

• Album artist tags can not be written to WAV files (at least not by FFmpeg, which is used by faircamp to encode audio files), therefore this tag will not appear in any WAV files generated by faircamp.
• Tags will only be copied to WAV output files with the tags: copy release option. (FFmpeg does not support explicitly defining the tags to be written to a WAV file, it only allows a full copy to be performed, or at least attempted)
• ID3 in WAV is generally pretty non-standard, so anything relating to tags in WAV can be considered unstable and might lead to glitches down to the player level.
