I use Winamp to play songs.

I am looking for a tool which can I display full ID3v2 Tag. Actually, tried some from Winamp plugin collection but they do not support complete ID3v2 information. The one with Mess Patch will only display Artist and Song.

What happens now is For Example:

If this is the Tag info of the song:

Artist: Michael Jackson, Britney Spears, Malcolm X & Jazzy B
Album: XYZ
Song: Now Playing

It should be displayed as:

XYZ - Now Playing - Michael Jackson, Britney Spears, Malcolm X & Jazzy B

The plugins I found are only able to show limited characters as in ID3v1 missing information from the end. So basically the plugins are able to fetch info from ID3v1 rather the newer one ID3v2.

For Example:

XYZ - Now Playing - Michael Jackson, Britney Spears, Malco

If anyone can help, do suggest.

Just a thought, if this can added in the new PLUS! Live so that we don't have to for further plugins .. or a Script

Thanks and regards,

This can't be a Plus! Live thing, since the plugins that provide the Now Playing information are actually plugins for the media player in question. Anything attached to Plus! merely listen for the media player plugins to broadcast the information.
So basically, you need a plugin for your media player that can read ID3v2 tags. From the sounds of it, you use Winamp, and there isn't a suitable plugin yet. It may be worth contacting the author of one of the plugins that does as least some ID3v2, and seeing if they'll add the rest.

yep, found a plugin called gen_msn that works perfect .. Has lots of other features as well.
