Default Support tags for FLAC files

I can set successfully tags for FLAC files. They are even read by MS Groove and Media Player .

But they don't show up in Reaper's media browser

Masi

PS: I am using FLAC for it's size and the more consistent support for tags in 3rd party software.

I wouldn't say no to this.

Bummer! Tags are only displayed for MP3 and WAV files (as far as I've tested). So here's another vote for displaying tags for FLAC, Vorbis (ogg) and OPUS files.

Sorry for reviving this, but could we please get this implemented? My use case for this is that I'm using Reaper for sound design, and I have a large library of BWF-tagged wavs. if I use DBPowerAmp to convert them to Flac, it caries over all the metadata, by putting in the BWF description and comment tags into appropriate comment and description fields in Flac which I can see in MediaInfo. However, reaper reads none of these fields if I bring up the file properties. This is a real bummer because as a result of this my Sound library is essentially twice the size of what it could be so that I can do keyword-based searches in the Media Explorer.

Definitely a huge +1 from me as well. I've just discovered that Reaper does not support Flac metadata recently, which is the reason why search results were sparse for Flac-based samples in the Media Explorer for me as well.

This feature would be very much appreciated.
