Hi
I've noticed that many people suffer from this bug. The problem is that currently AMIP doesnt support newer version of id3v2 tag format, so if you don't want your songs to be displayed incorrectly, you have to convert new id3v2 tags to old format. And I found a very convenient way to do that in foobar2000. First - you go in Preferences window, then Advanced -> Tagging -> MP3 Check 2 boxes - "Force preferred tag writing scheme on all files..." and "ID3v2 writer compatibility mode (...)" Screenshot: After this, if you find a problematic MP3 you just right-click on it, and press Tagging -> Rewrite File Tags Or you can do that to all your music collection by selecting them all and doing the same. Screenshot: Hope this helps! |
