Japanese track information

[tkmusic]

I am using Windows XP English version, installed with Japanese Global IME.

While ripping Japanese CDs into MP3, I noticed that most of the track information could not be read correctly. I tried renaming the files within the dMC Audio CD Input. However the names could not be registered.

How can I have the Japanese track information correctly registered?

Install the Lastest Music Converter Beta, and Audio Player beta, that should help.

Dear Spoon,

I just realized that I posted my original question in the wrong forum. I had wanted to ask about dMC instead of dAP. sorry for the mistake.

Anyway I installed both the latest beta versions of dAP(r3b5) and dMC(r11b1b), in that order. However the problem still remain - I cannot edit the Tag info even with the correct IME.

I decided to explore my OS environment to see if I need any supporting programs. I was then advised that dMC was probably a non-Unicode program and that was why it could not recognized the original Tag info. Then I noticed www.dbpoweramp.com stating that "All programs" will be made "Multilingual" and to have "Unicode support".

So is the problem I am facing simply because dMC is currently unable to support Tags info in non-English language? :o

It will support the language that the default system code page is set to (in International settings for Windows), but saying that mp3 is not really a multilingual format, id3v1 is not, id3v2 can be but I don't think there is wide support for it (the unicode), in the latest dMC you can set tagging options and set the default on id3v2 and set utf16 (unicode) to true.
