Tags are not showing

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I tag my MP3 files with the Exfalso program but when I play them in
GNOME-MPlayer, they don't show (see screenshot).

The QuodLibet/Exfalso developer says it uses Mutagen and it supports ID3v1
and v2.4. Where lies the problem?

Please run this command on one of you mp3 files

mplayer -vo null -ao null -frames 0 -identify [filename]

And post that output, that should show me what tags mplayer is seeing.

Does this mean its a problem with MPlayer?

It means the tags are not in a format that mplayer recognizes. I believe that 
mplayer
only reads the ID3v1 tags and ignores the others. Or your mplayer has not been
configured to process tags (missing library or such)

Do you want to post one of the files and I can see if I get the tags here?

You can consider this issue closed. My mp3 files only had IDv2 tags so of course
Mplayer ignored them.
