Package: python-eyed3
Version: 0.6.14-1
Severity: normal
Hello,
when I try to update a tag with non-ascii charachters in the comment
field I get an UnicodeEncodeError (traceback below). I think, the reason
is a missing `encode' call in the Tag.__saveV1Tag method. All other
fields are encoded using 'latin-1' but comment is not encoded.
Example Traceback:
File "/home/eike/python/audiofile.py", line 302, in writeFile
if not tag.update(eyeD3.ID3_V1_1):
File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/eyeD3/tag.py", line 520, in update
self.__saveV1Tag(version);
File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/eyeD3/tag.py", line 1064, in
__saveV1Tag
cmt = self._fixToWidth(cmt, 30);
File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/eyeD3/tag.py", line 1096, in
_fixToWidth
retval = str(s);
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode characters in position 56-59:
ordinal not in range(128)
I added the missing encode call in file tag.py and it worked for me.
Patch is attached.
Regards
eike
