Public bug reported: ID3v1 tags use 1-byte encoding. While standard specifies it as ISO 8859-1, in the real world most of players in the v1 era used Windows system 1-byte ANSI encoding corresponding to current locale.
What's why qmmp can not display such tags correctly. Relevant qmmp issue: https://sourceforge.net/p/qmmp-dev/tickets/924/ Relevant taglib issue: https://github.com/taglib/taglib/issues/129#issuecomment-2408567868 Taglib issue also contains the patch that fixes the problem by detecting 1-byte charset using system locale, just as recent update to Debian's 7zip does: https://salsa.debian.org/debian/7zip/-/commit/c9e7cf319db67ee58d27b90dba81832f6fb598a1 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 24.04 Package: qmmp 1.6.2-1build6 ProcVersionSignature: User Name 6.8.0-31.31-generic 6.8.1 Uname: Linux 6.8.0-31-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.28.1-0ubuntu2 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckMismatches: ./boot/grub/grub.cfg CasperMD5CheckResult: fail CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME Date: Sat Oct 12 15:04:33 2024 InstallationDate: Installed on 2024-04-29 (166 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 24.04 LTS "Noble Numbat" - Release amd64 (20240424) ProcEnviron: LANG=en_US.UTF-8 PATH=(custom, no user) SHELL=/bin/bash TERM=xterm-256color XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> SourcePackage: qmmp UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: qmmp (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug noble wayland-session ** Description changed: ID3v1 tags use 1-byte encoding.
