Truncated dBpa ID tags in iTunes 9.2 - why?

[Nubben]

Hi all,

I have been using dBpa for a long time for both ripping and tagging my music.

After I installed iTunes 9.2 it seems that dBpa 13.5 (all updates installed) edited tags get truncated so that you cannot see all the text when I choose "Get Info" in iTunes.

For instance, I normally add in the "Encoded by" tag

dBpoweramp 13.5, Secure, iTunes 9.2, Verified

Previously that tag has shown fine in iTunes 9.1.1 and previous versions. This may be a bug in iTunes but the weird thing is that AAC files encoded by XLosslessEncoder in Mac OS X (having very long encoder tags) shows fine and are not truncated at all. But as soon as I take that XLD encoded AAC and edit the tags with dBpa using ID Tag Edit it gets truncated. Is dBpa doing something to the tag structure causing the truncation?

Cheers!

You are creating m4a files?

If some kind person would like to send me a dbpoweramp created m4a file and an XLD created file (with the same tag, ie encoder):

Confirmed in iTunes 9.2 on Win 7 (64) and dBpa 13.5 w/ freshly ripped mp3 files

mp3 as well? If m4a and mp3 are both causing issue then I would say iTunes 9.2 is screwed.

in my experience, truncated tags means that the app (itunes) is reading the id3 v1 tags and not the id3v2 tags (for what ever reason).

iTunes 9.2 was screwed anyway, at least on Mac it cause another bug to many users (me included). In Finder the embedded cover art no longer displays. Gotta see if with the new 9.2.1 update is solved by the way.
