Roadrunner & Messed up song information

**wolf2989** · 01-22-2007, 08:49 PM

Hey all, have all my parts getting installed tomorrow, built the PC today but i get all kinds of messed up chars in RR when i browse my song collection. The ID3 tags are all correct and winamp displays the tags correctly, but see the image below to see what i mean. Any ideas??

I have the same problem. happened after I retagged a bunch of songs with a mass tagger.

Dont know the cure yet

Thanks Enforcer. I recommend using Tag&Rename over id3-tagit. Tag&Rename will run through nested directories to find the files whereas id3-tagit will not.

Thanks again!!
