Description foldus 2005-09-01 22:14:24 UTC
Version:           svn (using KDE KDE 3.4.2)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.5-20050130

I have my mp3 tags in utf-8 format. 

When I build my collection, encoding is ok.
Problem is when I edit title, album or artists. First it looks ok, but it didn't write correct mp3 tag and when I rebuild my collection it is in bad format. When i check mp3 tag with mp3info it have bad characters.

I have set decoding UTF8 in settings and 

locale
LANG=
LC_CTYPE="cs_CZ.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="cs_CZ.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="cs_CZ.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="cs_CZ.UTF-8"

I have svn version of amarok from 1.9.2005

This is a dup of bug #111246. And if you're refering to the recode option, that's evil and targered at badly tagged files. When that's enabled, amaroK will only use id3v1 tags, and that's bad.
