If I have a look at it now, = what I can see is:=20 AAC_DESC?=3D Enable support for aac/mp4 MP4_DESC?=3D Enable support for mp4 Both added by me :) In this particular case, I think only one is useful same goes for; ID3TAG_DESC?=3D Support ID3 v1/v2 tags ID3_DESC?=3D Enable support for id3 tags etc. Please keep an eye on consistency when it make sense, possibly rename optio= ns, improve descriptions etc. regards, Bapt --JwB53PgKC5A7+0Ej Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAk/Fvz4ACgkQ8kTtMUmk6EzTQwCdF+reSTYnh/nam+TooDERC3kI 0VAAoLEgKHu/zg1ZjuntLR1ecLTLtk/I =l9dr -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --JwB53PgKC5A7+0Ej--
