Hi Arnd,

Thanks for your answer - it's highly appreciated.
EasyTAG still does stuff for me that no other FLAC-tagging programme can.

I will downgrade to 2.1.5 is I am "only" a simple user. I am not into 
programming so recompiling is not the solution for me I guess, but thanks 
anyway!

Best regards

Robert
