Hi all, I am trying to change the ALBUM and GENRE tag values in mp3 files. My code changes ALBUM but does not change GENRE. Could you perhaps assist me in getting it to change GENRE too? 
use strict;
use warnings;
use MP3::Info;
use Time::Piece;

my $date = localtime->strftime('%Y/%m/%d');  
my $file = 'file.mp3';

my $tag->{ALBUM} = $date; # Change album to today;s date
set_mp3tag($file, $tag);
$tag->{GENRE} = "Audiobook"; # Change genre to Audiobook
set_mp3tag($file, $tag);
my $info = get_mp3info($file);
printf "$file length is %d:%d\n", $info->{MM}, $info->{SS};

When I look at the mp3 file in mp3tag ( http://www.mp3tag.de/ ), I can change the GENRE without a problem. Mp3tag tells me the tags are: IDv2.3 (ID3v1 ID3v2.3). When I run the code below to see if I can see what tags actually appear in the mp3, I cannot find the actual genre tag value that appears in mp3tag. That is, if I change GENRE to Audiobook in mp3tag, the word Audiobook does not appear in the output of this code below. 
use MP3::Tag;
use warnings;
use strict;
use Data::Dumper;

open FILE, ">mp3.txt" or die $!;
my $file = 'file.mp3';
my $mp3  = MP3::Tag->new($file);
$mp3->get_tags();
print FILE Dumper($mp3);

Thanks for your time.
