If I convert this FLAC:



to WMA, I get this fail:



Any chance of a fix, please?

Re: R15 Multiple artist field fail

I do not get this, the wma file was written correctly.

Which WMA release do you have?

I do not get this, the wma file was written correctly.

Re "correctly"... do you mean you don't get this when viewed in the same program, Mp3tag?

Having said which, viewing with Windows Media Player shows the same fail:

Which WMA release do you have?

dBpa says "Codec Windows Media Audio 9.2"

Re: R15 Multiple artist field fail

Windows Media Audio 10 Release 8 (WMA Pro 10)

Is what should be shown in dBpoweramp Configuration >> Codecs

Re: R15 Multiple artist field fail

Hmm... not a risk I'd like to take on this my main audio machine (Win XP), but trying on a Win 7 machine already having:

Codecs Installed

Encoders (write)

Windows Media Audio 10 Release 8 (WMA Pro 10)
.wma

I find success. I'll confirm on Win XP when I can. Thanks.

Confirmed.

FTR, dbPoweramp Configuration now shows:

Codecs Installed

Encoders (write)
[...]
Windows Media Audio 10 Release 8 (WMA Pro 10)
.wma


Decoders (read)
[...]
Windows Media Audio Decoder
.asf, .asx, .wma, .wmv, .wvx

I see no version on the decoder. How can I verify I have the preferred version?

Re: R15 Multiple artist field fail

The decoder is tied to the encoder, so you have the latest version now.

Re: R15 Multiple artist field fail

And hence presumably the preferred version

Thanks.
