New Features:

• [issue 5] Support for ID3 chapters and table-of-contents frames (i.e.CHAP and CTOC).
• A new plugin for toggling the state of iTunes podcast files. In other words, PCST and WFED support. Additionally, the Apple “extensions” frames TKWD, TDES, and TGID are supported. Run eyeD3 -P itunes-podcast --help for more info.
• Native frame type for POPM (Popularity meter). See theeyed3.id3.tag.Tag.popularities() accessor method.
• Plugins can deal with traversed directories instead of only file-by-file. Also,eyed3.plugins.LoaderPlugin can optionally cache the loaded audio file objects for each callback to handleDirectory.
• [classic plugin] New –remove-frame option.
• [statistics plugin] More accurate values and easier to extend.

Bug fixes:

• Fixed a very old bug where certain values of 0 would be written to the tag as ‘’ instead of ‘x00’.
• [issue 6] Don’t crash on malformed (invalid) UFID frames.
• Handle timestamps that are terminated with ‘Z’ to show the time is UTC.
• Conversions between ID3 v2.3 and v2.4 date frames fixed.
• [classic plugin] Use the system text encoding (locale) when converting lyrics files to Unicode.
