BoarderZone MP3Info is a simple software to analyze the tags and technical data of MP3 files.
Analyze the tags and technical data of MP3 files. The BoarderZone MP3Info software was designed to help you inspect various technical aspects of MP3 files and displays a variety of so called tags which store meta data about the music in the file.

In addition, it detects various problems which might prevent players from correctly playing the music in the file. Such problems might include unrecognized data, corrupted audio frames or inconsistent meta data in different tags.

The supported/recognized information includes:
1. Audio: Technical information about the audio format of the MP3 data, such as bit- and sampling-rate etc. Supports and displays VBRI/Xing/Info headers and LAME tags.

2. ID3 tags: Music meta information in form of these tags is commonly supported by a wide range of program and players. Supports the versions 1.0, 1.1, 2.2.x (including compressed meta frames!), 2.3.x and 2.4.x of the ID3 informal standard.

3. Lyrics3 tags: These tags are a somewhat outdated form of storing the lyrics text of songs in MP3 files. In addition, they provide a way to specify longer texts for the artist name and track and album title, than what is possible with ID3 v.1.x tags.

4. APE tags: Another way of storing (mainly text based) meta information in MP3 files which originated from a specific program and gained more support by other tools over time.

5. MusicMatch tags: Yet another software specific (and by now outdated) form of music meta information.

Normally BoarderZone applications can be "installed" by simply unpacking a distribution ZIP file and executing the bundled shell start scripts.

The software jar files have their respective classpaths set up correctly and will thus find all required libraries without need to set any environment variables for setting up a system wide classpath or the like.

However, when manually performing file operations on the unpacked directory structure, these classpath definitions in the jars manifest might not be correct anymore. If this happens, it is powerfully recommended to "reinstall" the software by unpacking the distribution ZIP file anew and replacing the damaged installation directory with the freshly unpacked one. Advanced users might be able to correct the failing directory structure manually by comparing it with the structure in the distribution ZIP file.

To find out about the offending missing libraries, starting the failing software in a command line shell which won't disappear after the failure might help: this will normally state the name of the library causing the problem and might thus be a hint at where the problem has its origin.
