Writing an id3v2 tag to a file will using mutagen not be readable by id3v2
Linux command line (and anything using the same library).

$ id3v2 -l Mouse\ Power\ Scroll\ -\ Tekzilla\ Daily\ Tip.mp4.id3 
id3v1 tag info for Mouse Power Scroll - Tekzilla Daily Tip.mp4.id3:
Title  : Mouse Power Scroll - Tekzilla   Artist: Tekzilla (HD Quicktime)       
Album  :                                 Year:     , Genre: Unknown (255)

$ mid3v2 -l Mouse\ Power\ Scroll\ -\ Tekzilla\ Daily\ Tip.mp4.id3

This is using mutagen 1.16 on a Kubuntu 8.10 system. I have attached the
gpodder support script that I am hacking.

The 'id3v2' program and id3lib which it uses cannot read ID3v2.4 tags. This standard
was released in 2000. Please do not use decade-obsolete tagging tools.

Sorry, my bad. I misread that it supported 2.4 tags. Pity. :-) I guess I'll have to
try and switch libraries in another package I use. :-(
