Taglib Property Handler: http://sourceforge.net/projects/taglibhandler/ This is the first public release with aif/m4a/etc. enabled, it is not widely tested. Please report any problems, no matter how small. -- Install instructions (Vista only): 1) Run tlhsetup2.exe. It needs Administrator access, and will prompt for it if you have UAC enabled. - It is 64-bit Windows aware. -- Manual install instructions: 1) Place TagLibHandler.dll in a system directory (i.e. NOT your user folder) 2) Open an administrator command prompt and register the module: > regsvr32 TagLibHandler.dll 1a) If you are using a 64-bit OS, consider also registering the x86 version of the component. It's worth having both installed as frequently you'll use x32 apps without realising. 2) Inform the property system that you'd like the handler to be used. This involves: a) Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\PropertySystem\PropertyHandlers b) Create (or find) a Key (folder) with the name of the file extension you wish to use. c) Edit it's (Default) such that the value is: {66AC53F1-EB5D-4af9-861E-E3AE9C07EF14} ie. create a Key called HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\PropertySystem\PropertyHandlers\.ogg and set it's (Default) value to {66AC53F1-EB5D-4af9-861E-E3AE9C07EF14}. It's safe to replace the system associations, such as .mp3, although, at this stage, you will lose functionality by doing so. You may want to back-up any data you overwrite. 3) Register TagLibHandler as the thumbnail provider for whichever formats you like. For OGG thumbnails: a) Create the key HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/.ogg/ShellEx/{e357fccd-a995-4576-b01f-234630154e96} b) Set its (Default) to {66AC53F1-EB5D-4af9-861E-E3AE9C07EF14}. -- Lost functionality by using Taglib Handler instead of the Windows Default. You will lose: The ability to write to tags, and the ability to view some tags. You will gain: The ability to read a whole new set of tags, including id3v2.4 tags with utf-8. -- Development environment: - Windows 10 - VS 2015 - taglib master branch at ./taglib (last known good revision: d53ca6f7369dc7299c2991fa1fb9e4d80f534cf3) - taglib CMake build output(s) at ./taglib_build_$(PlatformTarget) - Header-only libraries from Boost 1.62 at ./boost For the installer: - loki-0.1.7.7 - http://wtl.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/wtl/trunk/wtl@404 -- License (MIT): Copyright (c) 2008 Chris West (Faux) Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy of this software and associated documentation files (the "Software"), to deal in the Software without restriction, including without limitation the rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the Software, and to permit persons to whom the Software is furnished to do so, subject to the following conditions: The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software.
