Hi,

Been a bit of a lurker for a while, but signed up cause recently i have had a problem.

I re ripped all my cds several months ago with EAC using v2 settings. They all ripped fine.

A couple weeks ago i randomly put my whole collection in audio identifier to check for any poor quality files when i found this:



Took me weeks to work out what was wrong. I think the problem was that the id3 tags had corrupted, worked this out using encspot:



Removed all id3v2 tags and voila....



How the hell did this happen? anyone any ideas?

many thanks

Did you have EAC add the tags or did you use the command line with Lame?

Well i checked the quality after the rip anyway.... and it was the same as the bottom pic. So i am thinking some program has messed it up..?


anyway cmd line is:

-V 2 --vbr-new --add-id3v2 --ignore-tag-errors --ta "%a" --tt "%t" --tg "%m" --tl "%g" --t

is this still a good one to use?

Well, I am no EAC+Lame expert by any means but the recommended command line when using EAC and Lame is:
CODE
-V 2 --vbr-new --id3v2-only --pad-id3v2 --ta "%a" --tt "%t" --tg "%m" --tl "%g" --ty "%y" --tn "%n" %s %d

That is for id3v2 tags only. You might want to try that in the future. My guess is that the "--ignore-tag-erros" option is doing something here. Maybe someone with more experience (and knowledge) will chime in.
