    I have edited all my mp3 tags to look how I want them. They have been fine for years, but suddenly the tags are being edited within winamp. I only use ID3v1 Tags, but when I look at the info The songs are also now listed under ID3v2 but have the last letter removed from artist and title. Any ideas what is causing this and how to prevent it from happening again?

    I also have foobar installed as well as WMP if that is of any help

    Here is an example

  2. In WMP do you have the option set to "Retrieve additional information from the Internet"?

    The default settings have this option enabled with the suboption "Only add missing information". If the suboption "Overwrite all media information" is checked then it can overwrite all your MP3 tags.

    I don't use WinAmp, but I would not be surprised if it had similar settings.

    I've been using winamp 2.77 forever, just upgraded to 5.33 and it all seems fine. Must have been some bug that for some reason just started in that older version.
