Re: Re: Perl Golf - Renaming MP3s

And if the track number is more than 2 digits?

Update: Oops! It seems that I didn't read the challenge carefully.
buzzcutbudda specified that the track number would only be two digits.
Thanks for the heads up, nothingmuch.

The id3v1 spec only has space for a two-digit track number. (IIRC, theoreticaly, you could put any two characters in, so you could count in hex, base-36, or whatever if you need more space, up to a theoretical max of 254**2, with any two chars, other then \0, which probably has special meaning. I don't remember id3 that well off the top of my head.) Warning: Unless otherwise stated, code is untested. Do not use without understanding.

I believe it's the case that the CD spec itself limits a disc to 99 tracks anyway.	[reply]
