    Hi Juwe,

    The good news is that we've managed to reproduce your issue. We will look into this in the coming week.

    Best regards,

    That's great!
    Thank you Daren, but
    will there be a new update?
    "BWF mp2 & mp2 Release 6",

    or is it necessary to wait for a new Release of "dBpoweramp"?

    Best regards,
    Guido

    Hi Juwe,

    We've looked into this and the feature was removed from the BWFMP2 encoder, but unfortunately not removed from the help file.

    The reason for removing the feature has to do with the way dBpoweramp Music Converter reads and writes tags to files. Tag manipulation is usually handled by the decoder components. In earlier versions of the BWFMP2 encoder, the decoder couldn't handle BWF headers. When the support was added to the decoder, the metadata feature was removed from the encoder (otherwise you've got two components trying to do a similar/the same job).

    I appreciate that this isn't the answer you are looking for, but I think there might be another way (e.g. via a metadata DSP) to do what you are trying to achieve. Could you elaborate on what you're trying to do?

    Best regards,
    Daren.
