Lists created with exporting tool do not retain some unusual signs

Support
#1

I use this script for exporting a list of files

$TITLE(C:\Users\YOUR-USER-NAME\Documents\! Mp3tag export list %_DATETIME%.txt,utf-16)$loop(%_filename%,1)>> R + E ~ >| - %TITLE% $loopend()

The outcome is and TXT file with ANSI coding


The problem I have with is that if there is a ● sign in TITLE, it gets replaced in the created list to ?


How do I prevent that, i.e. retain all of the ● acuuracncies? Is it possible from the level of Mp3tag export tool to set the coding of the TXT file being created by it? Or do I have to change the default coding of my TXT files- and if yes, would it be a setting govern by the operating system [which is Windows 10] or by the software associated in it with the TXT file format [which is Notepad2]

has no function. Replace it with $filename to set path and encoding.

?

It has a function- i.e. it makes this code function in this way: it creates a list of TITLEs [ith every entry on it starting with >> R + E ~ >| - ]

And that is my goal: to see TITLEs and not FILENAMEs - but with unusual signs being retained in them

Could you show us a sample output?
Because ... what I get with this code is e.g
$TITLE(! Mp3tag export list 03.01.2021 19:29:05.txt,utf-16)>> R + E ~ >| - Corazon De Rubi <feat. Minük> >> R + E ~ >| - Glück und Erfüllung
which does not really look right to me.

Also, could you show us the description of the $TITLE instruction?
