Описание: Why Do WAV Files Have Limited Metadata? Have you ever wondered why some audio files seem to lack detailed information about their content? In this informative video, we’ll explain everything you need to know about WAV files and their limited metadata capabilities. We’ll start by describing what WAV files are and how they store raw audio data. We’ll discuss why the format was originally designed to prioritize sound quality over detailed tagging and how its structure influences the amount of information that can be embedded. You’ll learn about the optional INFO chunk and why it’s not a reliable method for storing metadata across different software and devices. We’ll also cover extensions like Broadcast Wave Format and why they still have limitations when it comes to metadata support. Additionally, we’ll explore how modern tagging methods, such as ID3 tags and Extensible Metadata Platform, are not widely supported in WAV files, making it difficult to organize large collections. If you need to add detailed info to your audio files, we’ll share some tips on converting and tagging WAV files effectively. Whether you’re a professional audio engineer or a casual listener, understanding WAV’s metadata limitations is key for managing your sound library efficiently.
