[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 877726] [NEW] Banshee doesn't recognise metadata in wma and m4a music files.

[whochismo]

Public bug reported:

In a clean Ubuntu 11.10 install, I started using banshee instead of
rhythmbox, and once the music library scan was completed, I realised
that many files were displayed as "Unknown artist" and "Unknown album".
Also, the song title was the filename (without the extension).

Maybe banshee doesn't support these files, but then it lets me edit the
song information, which doesn't make sense. The metadata is there, but
banshee just doesn't read it.

Is there any solution?

I'm using ubuntu 11.10 amd64 and banshee 2.2.0-1ubuntu2
