#6949 open defect

No support for multiple values in ID3v2.4 tags.

Description

Altough FFmpeg states that it has support for ID3v2.4 tags, there is one thing I can't get to work properly.
The ​ID3v2.4 specifications state the following:

There may only be one text information frame of its kind in an
tag. All text information frames supports multiple strings, stored
as a null separated list, where null is represented by the
termination code for the character encoding.

When I separate the values in a tag with NULL-characters, the values should all be recognized (following the ID3v2.4 specs). However, when I use FFprobe, it only shows the first value. For example ​mid3v2 shows the tags correctly.

Below is (a snippet of) the output of both mid3v2 and FFprobe with an example file. The TCON (genre) and TPE1 (artist) contain multiple values.

mid3v2:

mid3v2 --list 01_Infinite_\(Original_Mix\).mp3
IDv2 tag info for 01_Infinite_(Original_Mix).mp3
TALB=Infinite
TBPM=150
TCON=Hardstyle / Test / Example / Hard Dance
TDRC=2017
TIT2=Infinite (Original Mix)
TPE1=B-Front / Second Artist Example
TPE2=B-Front
TPUB=Roughstate

FFmpeg:

ffprobe 01_Infinite_\(Original_Mix\).mp3
Input #0, mp3, from '01_Infinite_(Original_Mix).mp3':

Allright. It is indeed also reproducible with ffmpeg.

Plex is now affected by this bug. This is a pretty major bug to be languishing for 4 years.

Anything happening with this patch? It's been 15 months since it was submitted...
