In this case your flac file seems to contain three different sets of tags (Vorbis, ID3v2, ID3v1). There can be different/invalid information stored in each of them. If one of the three genre tags is set to New Wave then you know from which set Tag.exe reads the values to populate the tags in the mp3 file. The resulting MP3 file only has a set of ID3v1 tags. If Tag.exe will only copy tags to ID3v1 then I would look for some other tool. ID3v1 is very limited in available tags, genres and tag size. I wouldn't use ID3v1 at all unless you have an old player that only reads ID3v1. As for the flac tagging: Generally speaking it is always quite cumbersome to maintain different sets of tags in one file. Flac files are usually only tagged with vorbis comments. Leave id3 to the mp3 files. I hope this sheds some light.. -s. -- slimpy ------------------------------------------------------------------------ slimpy's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1524 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=19112 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/ripping
