[vlc-devel] Re: Id3 tag and AVI RIFF file problem solved

[Igor Andruszkiewicz]

Hi Sigmund !

    Im sorry it wasn't too clear.  AVI  demux (in VLC) has a problem
with reading/parsing header when id3 tag V2 exists in front of the file.
That why we have to seek to postion after id3 tag (if id3 tag v2) and
then let "demux's" to check file. I attached id3tag.c file pls do diff
to see changes. What do think about it ?  

Igor
