I'm using a REFERENCE version of 12.1 and converting Flac -> mp3. A field in the extended tag section, "Grouping" and labeled as <CONTENT GROUP> is being transformed to <CONTENTGROUP> when the batch converter is used.
I thought tags were just transferred as is when the files are converted...?

Is <Content Group> a custom tag you created or a standard tag?

No it is foobar which is showing that, try a different program to show the tags, afaik we are not specially mapping grouping.

Yes, foobar does have a problem with that label; but TagScanner has a problem with the label too... Why would you think it's OK to arbitrarily change tag labels, regardless of the source...?

We map specific tags where the format requires it, for example an mp3 has:

for Ogg that would be
