Is it somehow possible to create id3 tags with lame containing double quotes? lame --tt "example "title"" obviously doesn't work

It's not possible, because it's a command line interface limitation, it doesn't depends on lame.

You didn't say which OS you are using. It's rather easy to do with *nix sh/kash/bash shell.

I have a custom wrapper around lame, it uses single quotes, not double quotes and replaces single quotes in the tags with ' for the shell.

I'm sure the popular lame front ends do this as well.

I found a solution I'm using windows so I can't use single quotes, however, escaping double quotes as " works (e.g. lame -tt "example "title"").
