id3v2.3 multiple genres?

Huh. So there's no way to chain multiple text values without specifying an ID3v1 genre number as a separator?

As a quick test, I just tried using "(0)Rock(1)Christmas" for the TCON frame, and it looks like minimserver wrote out the following:
GENRE=Blues
GENRE=Rock(1)Christmas

This is the format (num1)text2 in my previous post when num1 is 0 and text2 is Rock(1)Christmas.

Quote:Separating the two with a space doesn't help, either. I would have expected:
GENRE=Rock
GENRE=Christmas

Granted, misusing the ID3v1 genre reference seems like asking for trouble, anyway. I tried using an undefined reference value, but just about everything seems to choke on that.

MinimServer implements the ID3v2.3 and ID3v2.4 specifications. The 2.4 specification fixes a number of limitations in the 2.3 specification, including this genre issue.

Is there some reason why you can't use the format (num1)text2 or (num1)(num2)? MinimServer automatically translates (num) to the corresponding text string.
