Music Converter: Flac to MP3 Lame Multi-value Tag Issue

Hello,

I'm almost ready for mega rips, but still have a couple of kinks in the MUSIC CONVERTER config.

Start with CD Ripper to Flac. Multi-value tags are Style and Composer from AMG metadata, which convert fine with MUSIC CONVERTER to mp3 Lame. But I also create two other multi-value tags, MOOD & THEME, which I create in MP3tag, and neither convert as multi-value tags when using MUSIC CONVERTER to mp3 Lame. I actually only get the last mulit-value tag to convert. So I'm thinking it is actually writing over the MOOD and THEME tags until the last one is entered. Here is the process I am using (good or bad, please tell me what I'm doing wrong) ...

dBpoweramp configuration: Codec Advanced
1.0 Flac ID Tagging
1.1 Tag Creation - Vorbis Comments
1.1 ID3v2 - v2.3
1.2 ID3v2 Text Encoding - Ansi
2.0 mp3 ID Tagging
2.1 Tag Creation - ID3v2
2.2 ID3v1 - v1.1
2.3 ID3v2 - V2.3
2.4 ID3v3 Text Encoding - Ansi

CD Ripper
1.0 Rip to Flac
1.1 Options - Secure Rip (as per the dBpoweramp standard)
1.2 Options - Meta Data & ID Tag Options - STYLE & COMPOSER
1.3 DSP - ID Tag Processing - Additions
1.3.1 MOOD & THEME w/ temporary values (so they are ready for MP3tag)

MP3tag
1.0 Text file - Tag converter
1.1 MOOD with \\ as delimiters between each unique value of MOOD
1.2 THEME with \\ as delimiters between each unique value of THEME

At this point, all is good with the tags in the flac files when viewed from MP3tag or Foobar2000. Multi-value tags, are just that with several instances of MOOD & THEME in each track. But when viewed from dBpoweramp's explorer context menu under properties I only see the last mulit-value tag for MOOD & THEME.

Music Converter
1.0 Converting to - MP3 (Lame) V0 (slow)
2.0 DSP - ID Tag Processing - (nothing new, just going with the existing flac tags)

When its done, I look at mp3 files extened tags in MP3tag and Foobar2000 and MOOD & THEME are no longer mulit-value tags, but rather they contain the last mulit-value from the flac files. STYLE & COMPOSER are multi-value though.

Thanks in advance!

For id3v2 '/' is the deliminator although mp3tag might be using \\ as an input and changing its self?
