I did a search but couldn't find the issue mentioned:
MBTagger will write ID3 tags in English for about 2 or 3 albums before beginning to write them in Simplified Chinese. Here is what I've figured so far:
- If I quit and restart MBTagger, the issue does not change. A complete system reboot is needed to write in English again, whereupon 2 or 3 albums later, it writes in Chinese again.
- The filename is still renamed in English, even if the ID3 tags are in Chinese.
- Naming large groups of individual unrelated tracks, for example my disparate collection of 80s and 90s songs, did not seem to trigger the language shift. It specifically occured when entire albums were being tagged. My example: I have most of the Ultra-Lounge collection. The tags were written in English for the first 2 albums, then Chinese from then on.
- As far as I can tell, when I tag a track in MBTagger it shows both the old and new track tags in English. I only know if it wrote the tags in Chinese after the tag rewrite process is done.
