I've been reporting this for a while. I moved it out of your BIG bug list because most people do not use the TPE2 tag.  I still say that your import routine is wrong:



1. I Import a file into MC.

44.1 Khz Stereo

Problem #1: Artist field in the database is populated with 'Coltrane Orchestra' (TPE2). It should be populated with 'John Coltrane' (TPE1)


2. I edit the properties and change the 'Keywords' field from 'test Keywords' to 'new keywords'.  MC writes the tag.  Now the format looks like the following:

Notice the changes and lost tags?


Problem #2: TPE1 changed from 'John Coltrane' to 'Coltrane Orchestra'.  (This reflects the improper import listed in problem #1)

Problem #3: Data in TPE2 is lost

Thanks for the great bug report and your patience.

Both problems should be fixed next build.
