I tested the small archive mentioned above that was giving me problems in
Rhythmbox, this time on Debian Wheezy. I was able to change track information
on multiple tracks, without any info reverting. Therefore, I did not go ahead
and try your patch yet.

I did notice what seemed to be tiny little glitches in the playback in
Rhythmbox, as if the track was stopping for tiny bits. This happens only after
updating track info in rb. When I seeked backwards to replay one of the
glitched sections of the audio a second time, I heard the glitch again in the
same spot. However, I did not notice those glitches when I played that file
with vlc.

Also, file sizes changed somewhat drastically after changing artist, album and
genre to "testing" in rhythombox:

I may give your patch a shot sometime in the future. Thanks for your work. :)
