Fails on MP3's with apostrophes in the ID3 tags

[Chris Bozic]

Binary package hint: a2mp3

a2mp3 fails to optimize mp3's when they have one or more apostrophe anywhere in the ID3 tags of the mp3.

(a2mp3 is a great tool! It helped me get twice as much music on my mp3 player... which saved me money... which made me VERY happy! Thank you for writing and maintaining this!)

Hi Chris,

What version of Ubuntu are you running? I'm running Edgy and it seems to work fine.

Cheers,
Alex

I was experiencing the problem on Dapper. I am currently running edgy
but I have yet to try this tool again since my upgrade. However, I do
see that the version in Edgy is the same version in Dapper.

Hi,

I'm unable to re-create the problem on either Dapper or Edgy. If you see it again, let me know the steps you took to re-produce it and I'll have a look.
