Enclose such strings in the grave accent (top left to bottom right).

If the data in MP3tag is as you expected and the player shows stray data ... then, I am afraid, there is not a lot that MP3tag can do about it.

It may be worthwhile to scan the files for consistency just to make sure that there are no double or stacked tags. See [the Howtos to see links to programs](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/how-to-check-files-for-errors/44633) that do such scans.

If you are still not satisfied - could you supply a file that shows the wrong genre in the player?
