Bug Description

Binary package hint: easytag

sorry for poor English.

First I rip cds into mp3 files, some are Chinese songs and others are English ones.

Afterwards I run easytag to correct the wrong tag of Chinese songs, arrange directories, etc.

But when it comes to the English songs, though I don't need to correct tags or filenames, but easytag make them red to be

ready to be corrected.

I let the easytag corrects all the 'red' files, found that easytag asks me if I agree to add a symbol ' before all the filenames.

e.g.
before: /home/user/example.mp3
after: '/home/user/example.mp3

It's strange that easytag adds ' before the filename or the directories.

After easytag correcting the filenames, they look the same in Nautilus, never moved.

Why does easytag do this?

It might be a bug, so I report.

sorry I just tried again and found I need to add comment.

When I run easytag, it only asks to correct the tags of newly added songs.

But when I choose all, and use the 'scan selected files' function (I don't know if it is called so in English, my easytag is Chinese version) , and then click 'save files', it asks if I want to rename the files home/user/example to 'home/user/example .

After I click yes to all, the Rhythmbox missed the files, but I can add them in the music directory in home.

Why easytag adds a ' to all files?
