           Summary: tags not retrieved from files on an avfs + fuse
                    filesystem
           Product: taglib
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Debian testing
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: wheeler kde org
        ReportedBy: giuseppe.bilotta gmail com


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.6)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages
OS:                Linux

Part of my music collection is archived in zip and rar files. To access their content \
without having to unpack them, I use AVFS and FUSE. However, I've noticed that with \
this solution neither amarok nor konqueror are able to view the tags of the files. If \
I copy the files out of the archives, the tags become visible again.

To replicate the bug, it's necessary to set up AVFS and FUSE. After installing them, \
create a directory named .avfs in the user's home directory and execute the mountavfs \
command. The entire filesystem tree will now be accessible in ~/.avfs; moreover, if \
/path/to/some.zip is a zip file, it will be possible to access its contents by going \
to ~/.avfs/path/to/some.zip#/ (i.e. appending a sharp sign it's possible to access \
the file as a directory).

To verify that taglib cannot cope with such a setup, have ready a tagged mp3 \
(musicfile.mp3), and create a zip file containing it (zip test musicfile.mp3). Using \
amarok to play ~/.avfs/path/to/test.zip#/musicfile.mp3 will play the file correctly, \
but no tags will be found.

By contrast, using e.g. id3v2 --list ~/.avfs/path/to/test.zip#/musicfile.mp3 will \
list the tags correctly.
