ID3v2.4 separator problem
Tag ID3v2.4 standard use the NULL char as multiple separator, but Songbird 0.7 RC2 seems unable to handle this situation, if I tag two artists in ARTIST column with foobar2000, then Songbird would be unable to get the tag info at all.
I’m frustrated

Inappropriate?Hi WM,
right now Songbird's model is one value per property per media item. Changing this would have a significant impact on the user interface, database, and many other areas of the application. While we are hoping to provide support for this at some point, we have other important issues to resolve first.
In the mean time, the first of the two values should appear correctly in Songbird, just not the second or further values. If this is not the case, please create a bug at bugzilla.songbirdnest.com and attach an example file so that I can do some testing and see if I can resolve this issue.
If you prefer to use a different application to manage your tags, you can disable tag writing entirely. Simply create a new tab, type the url "about:config"
and then set the value of "songbird.metadata.enableWriting" to false.
Thanks for taking the time to report your problems. I'd really love to have more time to work on advanced tagging, but it's not going to happen for a while.

Inappropriate?Thanks for replying,
You're righrt, Songbird converts NULL into space in display.
it's really strange, I indeed encountered the situation the when import a file with multiple artists, Songbird could not load and display any tag metadata. but now it works fine.
Thanks for the tip again!
I’m thankful

Inappropriate?Great! In the future, feel free to file official bugs if you find specific defects with metadata reading or writing. While I'm happy to answer questions here at getsatisfaction, if you need to attach files, http://bugzilla.songbirdnest.com is the place to be. Have fun. :)
I’m happy
