Tagnavi_custom.config: searching by comment field

<< < (3/7) > >>

SoulSkorpion:
So, does this mean Winamp has incorrectly tagged my files?

On my machine, both comment fields are showing up as " " in Winamp.

Any ideas why the one tag field is showing up in "ÿgame>" instead of "", in Rockbox?

That particular one looks like a unicode-type error. Maybe that particular tag has been written as UTF-16 instead of UTF-8 or some other similar circumstance? My knowledge of the intricacies of unicode is not great.

Your example file doesn't seem to have the problem?

Rockbox now (r14294) ignores "iTunNORM" ID3V2 comments. You will have to rebuild the database. Remember to backup run-time data.

Well, it does on my Rockbox (that's why I uploaded it :)). Does it show up OK on yours? What version are you running?

[edit]I'll try the latest build and see if it fixes things...[/edit]

[edit again]It hasn't. The comment tag still begins with control characters that aren't meant to be there. I've just noticed that the "genre" tag also contains a control character.

I don't think the iTunes ID3v2 thing is the problem. I was only seeing this effect when there was only an ID3v2 tag present (with no IDv1) - adding IDv1 tags has changed the nature of the problem to the current "corrupt first character" problem. I've set Rockbox to prioritise ID3v2 over ID3v1, so I'm not sure why it's not picking up the fixed iTunes/winamp tags... [/edit again]
