Fix endless loop when reading an unsupported file from a stream

Binaries are available from nuGet

Version 5.22

Changed

• XMP : Added more default namespaces so you don't have to ;)

Fixed

• General : Prevent duplicating a field when updating the value of a standard field using AdditionalFields instead of using the standard property (e.g. track.AdditionalFields["CATALOGNUMBER"] = "CAT1" instead of track.CatalogNumber = "CAT1" for Vorbis)
• APE tags : Smarter detection of picture fields
• MP4/M4A : Handle the case where the header of an atom uses the 64-bit convention to encode its size

Version 5.21

New

• MP4/M4A : Generic support for UUID atoms
• MP4/M4A : Support for XMP metadata (see code snippet)
• WAV : Support for XMP chunk
• WAV : Support for Broadcast Wave Cart chunk

Fixed

• ID3v2 / PRIV frames : Owner field is now an ISO-8859-1 string and does not have any encoding byte anymore
• MP4/M4A : Writing an AdditionalField with a field code smaller than 4 characters doesn't corrupt the file anymore

Technical

• Zomp.SyncMethodGenerator is now a build-time dependency only (this time for good)

Version 5.20

New

Changed

Technical

Version 5.19

Changed

• Settings.DefaultTagsWhenNoMetadata now uses MetaDataIOFactory.TagType.RECOMMENDED by default, which selects the recommended tag formats to use for a given audio format.

NB : This new setting has the same effect as previous default settings, except for OptimFROG format where APE tag will be written instead of ID3v2

Fixed

• OGG : Fail fast when invalid header is found

  • Original release date
  • Original release year
  • Language

Fixed

• Track.CopyMetadataTo properly keeps year/date format

Binaries are available from nuGet

Version 5.15

Changed

• MP4/M4A : Non-standard fields are now all saved even if you don't provide any namespace.
  • If <field name> is 4 characters or shorter, the field will be persisted as a standard atom;
  • If <field name> is longer than 4 characters
    • If you provide just a bare name (e.g. "MY_CUSTOM_FIELD"), it will be persisted as a ---- custom atom, using the com.apple.iTunes namespace
    • If you provide a namespace using the : separator (e.g. "my.namespace:MY_CUSTOM_FIELD" or "----:my.namespace:MY_CUSTOM_FIELD"), it will be persisted as a ---- custom atom, using the namespace you provided
• MP4/M4A : As a consequence of the above change, all non-standard fields persisted with the com.apple.iTunes namespace are now listed with their bare name (i.e. without their namespace) in AdditionalFields
  • Before v5.15 : AdditionalFields key is ----:com.apple.iTunes:MY_CUSTOM_FIELD
  • Starting from v5.15 : AdditionalFields key is MY_CUSTOM_FIELD
• MP4/M4A : The Conductor metadata is now written to the ©con atom instead of ----:com.apple.iTunes:CONDUCTOR. The latter is still properly read and mapped

Fixed

• APEtag : Properly read lyrics with more than 100 characters
• APEtag : The Publisher metadata is now properly mapped to IMetadata.Publisher and won't appear in AdditionalFields anymore
• Track.CopyMetadataTo doesn't ignore embedded images upon saving anymore

Thanks to @Agagamand for his precious help on these ones 👍
