Using metaflac (1.0.3) like this:
metaflac file.flac --set-vc-field=title=testÅÄÖåäöeè
The vorbiscomment will not be UTF8-encoded, instead
they will be stored directly as ANSI.
When trying to add some more comment, it gave the
following error:
ERROR: writing FLAC file file.flac, error =
FLAC__METADATA_CHAIN_STATUS_OK
Does that mean that weren't enough room for the
comments? But shouldn't it then rewrite the entire
file and perhaps add an extra padding block (I
believe OggVorbis does this).
And, it would be really nice if at least the
Winamp-plugin could display these vorbiscomments.
Even better if there where a handy tageditor (like
the one for the OggVorbis-plugin).
