Version: 1.5 (using KDE 3.5.9) Installed from: Ubuntu Packages Compiler: gcc 4.2.3 OS: Linux This seems to be related to Bug 152209, in which album art from ID3 v2.4 tags was not being displayed in Amarok. All of my MP3s that contain ID3 v2.2 tags won't show album art in Amarok. After opening these files in a tag editor and re-saving them as ID3 v2.3 and re-scanning my collection in Amarok, the artwork shows up just fine.
I would like to clarify the information above in the bug description. KDE 3.5.9 was installed using Ubuntu packages, however I have compiled and installed version 1.5 of taglib from source as Ubuntu's Hardy repos still have 1.4.
The problem seems to be as follows: - in id3 v2.2 the picture type is an array of 3 characters (without terminating zero) - in later versions, the picture type is stored as zero terminated mime type taglib tries to interpret the v2.2 picture type as zero terminated, which causes various errors in the aftermath. I'll try to provide a patch in the next days
Created attachment 28729 [details] patch that converts v2.2 PIC frames to v2.4 APIC frames
forgot to mention: the patch goes into directory taglib/mpeg/id3v2
please use the cumulative patch added to Bug 171957 (taglib corrupts ogg files) instead
