[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 159178] Re: Banshee does not read ID3v2 UTF-8 encoded tags

[Mikael Ståldal]

I experience this bug in Ubuntu 11.04 with banshee 2.0.0-2ubuntu1.

Try with the attached MP3 file, it contains an ID3 title tag with
Swedish non-ASCII characters encoded with UTF-8.

The id3v2 tool shows it correctly in the terminal:

$ id3v2 -l test.mp3 
id3v1 tag info for test.mp3:
Title  : Räksmörgås                   Artist:                               
Album  :                                 Year:     , Genre: Unknown (255)
Comment:                                 Track: 0
id3v2 tag info for test.mp3:
TIT2 (Title/songname/content description): Räksmörgås

But in Banshee you see garbage.
