Issue created Jun 18, 2005 by Michel Alexandre Salim@michel.salim

Accented characters are broken in OS X

I use both Ogg Vorbis and FLAC for my music collection, ripping CDs to FLAC and then reencoding to Vorbis for my portable player. Things work well until one day I decided to tag a French CD that has accented characters.. I tried explicitly saving the tag file in UTF8 using TextEdit, but the tags become corrupted (I get ## instead). If I try listing the tags (using vorbiscomment -l , ogginfo or metaflac --list) of a file tagged in Linux, I get for example the following:
