[Easytag-mailing] Great tool. Small problem with Japanese

[Andy Howell <AndyHowell austin rr com>]

Hello,

	I have a large number of mp3s with tags encoded in Shift_jis. Rhythmbox 
is unable to display these. I wrote a little perl script to use network 
kanji filter to change the encoding, but ran into problems with perl's 
UTF support.

Then I found EasyTAG. Life is much better now :)

It works on almost all my files, save a few. EasyTAG ( and my silly 
script ) don't recognize the encoding as Shift_jis on them. If I remove 
the id3v1 tags, it works.

I looked for an option to ignore id3v1 tags for purposes of determining 
the encoding, but didn't see anything. If you can point me in the right 
direction within the code, I happy to investigate why these particular 
files are causing a problem.

I'm using EasyTAG 2.1 on a Fedora 7 64 bit system.

Thanks for making EasyTAG,

Andy
