Limits and verification
Only framed MPEG Layer III MP3 is accepted; free-format bitrate and other audio containers are rejected. Existing leading artwork and other fields are replaced, not preserved. Blank fields omit that frame. Null characters and malformed Unicode are rejected.
Examples demonstrate an expected workflow; they do not prove every input or every branch of an external specification. Check important results with an independent source before using them for money, security, compliance, safety, or irreversible file changes.
Browser processing boundary
Tool input is processed by code running in the browser and is not intentionally sent to a CZOA processing API. The page can still request ordinary site assets, analytics, or advertising when those services are enabled. Browser extensions and managed-device software remain outside this tool's control.
