Version: 1.4 (using KDE KDE 3.4.2) Installed from: Compiled From Sources Compiler: n/a to bug OS: Linux Per Scott Wheeler: "The basic issue is that writing ID3v2 tags defaults to ISO-8859-1. In the C++ API there's a call to change the default and there's no equivalent in the C API." The id3v2 spec allows for 4 encodings, but as a result, only the first, ISO-8859-1 gets used. So there is no way to write unicode to a tag using the taglib C binding. I'm not certain if this issue could occur with other file formats. As an aside unrelated to the bug, id3lib's id3tag will write utf-8 bytes to a v2 header, but does not properly set the text encoding description byte, so taglib fails to read it. Setting the byte manually results in proper taglib behaviour (throwing this in in case someone using id3tag complains about reading. reading works fine - it is writing where the C binding runs into issues).
SVN commit 538781 by wheeler: Add a function to set the default ID3v2 encoding in the C API.
