When I tried to enter unicode characters (greek) in a new, user defined, genre (options-\>genre), mp3tag does not save this entry

All work fine when I'm using only Latin characters

Below are the contents of mp3tagerror.log

This is a bug in Mp3tag and I'll fix it to the next release.

Thanks for reporting!
