Thanks a lot it works just fine, but I am really confused. I have been trying to understand how the ID3v2 TAG works and I can not figure out this part (header size). Theoretically the whole header should be 10 Bytes. The size part is 4 Unsigned Bytes. So based on this theory if I read 4 Bytes I should be able to get the whole header size. In practice I failed.

The information that I have take is from the official page of the TAG given under:

http://id3.org/id3v2.3.0

I can not still figure this out, because then by adding 16 Bytes (16 Bytes = 4 Unsigned Bytes x 32 Bits size each). So in theory the header size is 4 Bytes now will be 16 Bytes.

Please correct me if I am wrong
