You might have an utf-8 encoded file without BOM therefore Mp3tag can't detect the encoding.

I assume the files that worked before had a BOM and now you got a file without BOM.
Can't think of any other way. -------------------- |

QUOTE (dano @ Jan 19 2011, 21:15)  I assume the files that worked before had a BOM and now you got a file without BOM. OK. My procedure copies and pastes from a web site into a temporary .txt file in Textpad just to get into Mp3tag, so I guess that .txt file must previously somehow has inherited a BOM, now lost.Can't think of any other way. Thanks Dano. |
