Description elbows 2002-11-04 04:34:50 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.0.8)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources

The tag reader seems to truncate titles at about 30 characters. This shows up both in the playlist (Split Playlist) and the main window (Excellent). If I disable the tag reader, the full filename is displayed, even if longer than 30 characters.

When I open the same files in XMMS, I get the full titles, so it would appear that the tags themselves  are intact.

Change to wishlist.

KDE 3.2 supports ID3v2 which supports titles longer than 30 characters.  (So this is now true for all Noatun playlists.)
