Hi All,
Firstly, sorry if this has been covered before but I’m a Newbee here and this issue is driving me mad.
Everything seems to edit correctly with the exception of the “Comments” tag. Whatever I type in the tag editor under comment does not show up in the music file itself. I right click on the file itself to check afterwards and the comment box is blank.
Any ideas please?
I use Music Bee as a player and even when I add a comment in the comment box within the editing feature that doesn’t copy through to the file itself either.
Thanks,
Gary

Please show us a screenshot of the extended tags dialogue Alt-T for a single file with a filled COMMENT but where other programs do not show it.
I would also like to know whether you use an OS with the English language. As the comment field gets a language token which is set to English by default, it could be that the target applications expect a language token corresponding to the OS language settings.
See the Options\>Tags\>Advanced
to set the language token.

OK, the language token only applies to MP3 files but not FLAC.
Whether the WIndows Explorer knows how to interpret FLAC tags thoroughly, I don't know.
You could try to add a mapping like this:
where only the line with COMMENT as Target should get your attention.
