oh yeah, the usual open source friendliness, how I missed it ;-)
I actually did so, but probably missed to click yet another confirm web button.

What problem with my build environment should that be?

The code clearly takes the first number only, which is based on the OS and C library behavior, …

If you want the highest available index that is what my patch is doing.

Argh, sigh. You know, in my projects I accept patches form everywhere.
I even hand edit whitespace in Outlook mangles patches if I have too.

Btw. the wiki lists another git repository on fu-berlin or so that appears to be unavailable? Obsolete I assume?

So this python script is the thing to use, or is there something hiding in netmdcli, too?
Is it also supposed to already decrypt the track?
