It does appear that there might be an issue with the code processing the v2 tags. On several of my MP3's it will not show anyinfo on the v2 tags. even though it sets the hasid3v2 property to true. On some of my MP3's it does come back with the correct information though. I would suggest you download a MP3 editor and set the tag. I used audacity on one of the MP3s that originally did not show a v2 tag, edited the tag, re-exported the mp3 and now it shows the v2 tag.
I used audacity to edit the v2 tags on one of the mp3s that were not showing anything. I saved a new v2 tag to the mp3, and now it does show the information.
Attached is my project. You can either use the console app or the Windows app.
ETA: I agree with meneloo, there is definatly something wrong with the v2 processing.
every char in the tags seems to be followed by a \0, mhmm ... i give up, i had to know the specification of mp3 tags
there has to be somewhere some info how the text is stored... but i don't know where.
A good place to start.Quote:

Cool, you're code is actually working fine. it returns some of the data, like the artist name on some MP3 files, but for most of them it returns 'no Tag found'.Quote:

If you are really looking at editing/reading the ID tags, you should look at the idsharp link above.
i think i'll try to implement it or at least parts of it. i could be a good training to use some pointers, unsafe code etc.
edit: cool one can learn a lot from implementhig mp3 tags. i've just found that this text is utf16 and the first bytes describe how it's stored ;]
