#175 id3cp corrupts id3v2 tag

[rpisani]

Hello --

I think I may have found a bug in 3.8.3 version of taglib. I wrote a script to recursively re-encode mp3s and then use id3cp to retain the tags. In testing this all seemed to work just fine. Id3info shows me the anticipated information, however clients such as amarok, my creative zen player etc, seem to interpret the v2 tag in Chinese characters. I've tried stripping the tags, re-copy etc, and I get the same result. V1 seems to work fine, but then i don't get the embedded album art, etc.

The original files display v2 data in amarok, my mp3 player fine.

Thanks
Ryan

That also happens to me, although not with every file. In fact, this has been happening only and always with the TWiT podcast: http://www.twit.tv/TWiT

I always re-encode it at a lower bitrate to save space in my cell phone and I always have to fix the ID3 tags manually. That still hasn't happened with any of the other podcasts I listen to - about 5 others.
