[6.73] Reaper does not recognize metadata in imported audio
I have several MP3 files that I want to import and I want them to all snap to the project BPM. I went through the trouble of manually finding the BPM and applying it to the files in the media explorer. I even remembered to manually write the metadata to the files. I closed and reopened Reaper and then tried to import them and none of them were fit to the tempo. It does not recognize the tempo no matter what I do.
Things I have tried: putting the tempo in both the metadata and the filename; switching between "automatically adjust media" and "prompt to adjust media;" importing from the file browser and from the media explorer; changing the "offset" parameter on the file to see if any other metadata is considered; and switching the timebase of the track I'm importing onto. I know for sure that Reaper is capable of reading the metadata because it appears in the source properties popup and because I tried converting one of the items and keeping the metadata, which it did.
I am running Pop OS 22.04 (Linux) on the native version of Reaper.
