\section{\label{ref:SupportedMetadata}Supported metadata tags}
Rockbox supports different metadata formats. In general those tag formats
are ID3 (v1 and v2), APE (v1 and v2), Vorbis, MP4 and ASF. Few codecs use
codec specific tags, several codecs do not use any tags yet. The following
table gives an overview about what tag types rockbox supports for which
audio file extension.
\note{There is always only \emph{one} tag type supported for each file
extension.}
