[Bug 179258] Re: EasyTag cannot write correct UTF-16LE ID3v2.4
to enable ID3v2.3 in easy tag please install easytag-aac from ubuntu Software Center, later go to EASY TAG settings-preferences. You can recognize if 2,3 is enabled checking Help-About Easy Tag - add-ons... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/179258 Title: EasyTag cannot write correct UTF-16LE ID3v2.4 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/easytag/+bug/179258/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 179258] Re: EasyTag cannot write correct UTF-16LE ID3v2.4
Hi clubsoda, thank you for trying it out and for the detailed report. I will mark this as fix released. I don't know about easytag-aac (I'm not a developer, just triager :-) ** Changed in: easytag (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Fix Released -- EasyTag cannot write correct UTF-16LE ID3v2.4 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/179258 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 179258] Re: EasyTag cannot write correct UTF-16LE ID3v2.4
Hello and thanks again for looking into this issue. Right now I'm seeing mixed results, as follows:- 1) ID3v2.4 UTF-16 cannot be selected. That is to say, after choosing it in the preferences page and clicking OK, upon returning to the preferences page somehow the setting has reverted to UTF-8. [Perhaps this is intentional, since v2.4 was largely about adding UTF-8. Maybe no harm would come from removing UTF-16 from the list of character sets for v2.4.] 2) ID3v2.3 Better luck here. UTF-16 can be selected even though it is greyed out. According to my test this is generating UTF-16LE. (Yay!) For my purposes v2.3 is now usable and this issue is resolved. The only lingering doubt is, what if there are MP3 players which support big- endian only? If so, the inability to select UTF-16BE would be the mirror image of this bug for anyone owning one of those. By all means let's call it fixed and see if they come stampeding forth. :-) With Thanks, clubsoda Tested versions: easytag 2.1.6-1 libid3-3.8.3c2a PS: How about easytag-aac, will these changes flow through to it too? -- EasyTag cannot write correct UTF-16LE ID3v2.4 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/179258 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Karmic (and Jaunty-backports) contains the newer 2.16 easytag (as opposed to 2.14). Could you please check if this is still an issue for you with the latest version? -- EasyTag cannot write correct UTF-16LE ID3v2.4 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/179258 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 179258] Re: EasyTag cannot write correct UTF-16LE ID3v2.4
Thanks for following up on this. I have just reproduced this with easytag-aac 2.1.5-0.0 and libid3tag0 0.15.1b-10 on Hardy 8.04. These versions are unchanged in Intrepid so the answer must surely be Yes!. As before, a UTF-16 tag written by Picard appears perfectly on the player but the same tag written by Easytag displays nonsense. The difference is that Easytag is currently writing UTF-16 as big-endian. This can be verified for example by:- xxd song.mp3 | less and looking for the byte order mark in the ID3 header:- fe ff indicates big-endian ff fe indicates little-endian. Previously, Easytag would output little-endian in ID3v2.3 but that option has now been removed from the preferences page.

Is this symptom still reproducible in 8.10? ** Summary changed: - v2.4 UTF-16 tags are coming out big-endian + EasyTag cannot write correct UTF-16LE ID3v2.4 ** Changed in: easytag (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- EasyTag cannot write correct UTF-16LE ID3v2.4 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/179258 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
