    Maybe it's time update libFLAC to 1.3.2 for this test build?

    "Bug Fix: Flac tagging, if tag did not have a vendor string (non-standard) then previously was writing a 2nd tag block"

    Please provide more info on this.

    Also, the Album tag issue persists in this release.

    Seems to imply there was some wasted space in the Vorbis block. How would we know if this happened, and how to fix old files?

    Not a wasted space, just a certain program not writing the tags correctly, which dBpoweramp tries to retag and it ends up not replacing the existing tag block because of the tagging error.

    This is not fixed.

    My mp3 files still show Album Sort as being split, in this new beta.

    ... and, the Show Work Movement is still automatically populated with 1, when I rip to flac and the other movement tags are populated.

    You would have to create new MP3 files.

    The show work movement tag is supposed to be set to 1 under certain conditions.

    OK. I'll test this out shortly.

    ... Spoon, I am confused here.

    I have created new mp3 files (from flac) and the problem is still the same, as shown here: Album and Album Sort inconsistency

    So that I understand fully, please can you confirm these conditions?

    Anyone else see this behaviour in the new R16.3 beta 3 release or is it just me?

    Just had a weird one I've never seen before. Ripped a new CD that seemed to have all the metadata identified fine, but when I went to find the folder, it was titles "Unknown Artist -" and the first track had no artist, title or album tags, but all the others did. Also all of the track filenames were simply " - - 01 - Track 1.flac", " - - 02 - Track 2.flac", etc. Have a look at the screen shots. I just clicked rip again, and this time it's fine. Also, obviously no warning of overwriting, since the folder and filenames are now different (named correctly).
