In Nautilus, we have dedicated tabs for images, pdf files, etc. However, there is no such tabs for mp3 ID3 information.

Nautilus Properties Window

Is it possible to add this tab? If a plugin is needed, which plugin does provide this functionality?

There's something called MediaInfo which does this. Here's a link to the website:

https://mediaarea.net/en/MediaInfo

To install MediaInfo, enter the terminal and paste in the following commands:

sudo apt-get install mediainfo

nautilus -q && nautilus & (this restarts nautilus).

Now you should have a tab in the properties of audio files which looks like this:

You have to install totem or gnome-mplayer. Both provide a nautilus plugin that brings this info on the properties window in nautilus.
