1) hardly it is possible...

Don't tell me this. It IS possible, because i've experienced it right here, on this system. I wouldn't waste my time posting this to lie to you.

To fix this issue, if i shorten the lyrics, it works fine. If I go back to the long lyrics, the file has problems. The file will crash explorer whether your plugin is loaded or not.

The problem isn't the plugin; so please don't get defensive.

The problem is with the lyrics themselves. I have experienced this with ID3v2 tagging in foobar. I tried using APEv2 with ID3v1, same problems. However, my little box to remove ID3v2 tags was 'greyed out'

I will try your suggestions. I'm interested to figure out exactly what happens to cause the problem too. Because it is repeatable; it should be easy to solve.
I'll post later because I'm tired. here are 2 screenshots of the error occurring.






Anyway, all i have to do right now is make sure that the lyrics are not too long and I'll be okay.

Dug, tomorrow (8 hours from now) I will be online, I use google talk, do you ? I'll try to IM with you.

Have you tryed to make some lyrics by the internal foobar's means?

By the way thanks for your patience, if I download some plugin, crashing my system I'll just throw it away and don't make some investigations .

Anyway, all i have to do now is make sure that the lyrics are not too long and I'll be okay.

Telling you again, I have a lot of lyrics much more than 4k (your examples is just near 1k) , and tested foobar2000 with really long lyrics (over 64k)... That's really strange.

When exactly crash comes? Have you tryed to make the same tags configuration (as mine)?

upd: nope, In 8 hours I'll already leave the bunker, kill the light... maybe we sould move to the mail, and post the result here. (dugwin at gmail com)
