Dear members,
in spite of my very bad English, I post a very urgent question I've posted in the german forum before, but without a helpful idea.
I tag my mp3-Files with just bought MC18. Among others I also fill the fields "orchestra", "Producer", "Custom" or "Notes". In the last I save all the important tag-infos as a String.
Now happens very strange things:
In many hundred files the text of the following fields is changed into other Strings:
"orchestra" becomes "rchestra; ; ; ; "
"Producer" becomes "RODUCER"
"Custom" becomes "ustom; ; ; "
"Notes" becomes "otes; ; ; ; ; ;"
The number of ";" varies - perhaps depending from the length of the original text.
In the yesterday evening I deleted these wrong tags, and today there are again 48 changed tags only in the field orchestra; in other fields there are totally many more mistakes.
Now I'm very frustrated, because it takes very much time to repair all the mistakes.
Especially annoying with mp3s from online-stores, because I don't know the lost infos anymore.
So I ask for helpful ideas. Do You know this problem?
(I've already reloaded a backup in a new created database. Without success.)
With kind regards,
Matthias

You can undo tag changes.
I'm not sure what is causing this to happen though.
-
I haven't seen that problem. No idea.

Please open the jpg in the attachment. You see some wrong tags. Always the first Letter is missing.
The Undo-Function is not helpful, because I'm permanently ripping Music from my CDs and don't detect changes immediately.

Which version of MC is this? There was a problem fixed like this for WAV files back in:
18.0.104 (12/31/2012):
1. Fixed: WAV files created by other programs (like WMP and others) containing tags in the RIFF header could be imported with garbled tag values.
-
It happens with the actual version of MC18.
I only use additionaly MP3tag, but the mistake occures also with files, that were not edited by mp3tag.
Many thanks for response.
P.S.: I will tomorrow have to look for "RIFF header" and garbled tag values (no it's 1 o'clock).

What is the full MC version you are running, was the question. It would be like 18.0.xxx.
-
It is the 18.0.212-Version.
