Then I ran across one with a strange formatting in the TIT2 frame, which is a title. It had the name of my song, but each letter was separated by a 0x00 byte. None of my media players have trouble reading this. Any suggestions to what the problem could be?<br /> http://www.programmersheaven.com/mb/MP3/386111/386111/id3v2-frame-tit2/ Fri, 20 Feb 2009 21:35:58 -0700 MP3 programming http://www.programmersheaven.com/mb/MP3/386111/386419/re-id3v2-frame-tit2/#386419 Sounds like it was stored in UNICODE. a "wchar_t" is two bytes wide instead of one. The world runs on UNICODE now, so you may wind up with more files like this one in the future, unless you use an old Windows 9X application to edit them. I'll post a link below to some information that helped me get started with UNICODE in my C++ programs a while back. Maybe it can explain this to you.<br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.cprogramming.com/tutorial/unicode.html">http://www.cprogramming.com/tutorial/unicode.html</a><br /> <br /> -<em><strong><span style="color: Red;">S</span><span style="color: Purple;">e</span><span style="color: Blue;">p</span><span style="color: Green;">h</span><span style="color: Red;">i</span><span style="color: Purple;">r</span><span style="color: Blue;">o</span><span style="color: Green;">t</span><span style="color: Red;">h</span></strong></em> http://www.programmersheaven.com/mb/MP3/386111/386419/re-id3v2-frame-tit2/#386419 Thu, 26 Feb 2009 11:32:45 -0700 MP3 programming
