You can try to export tags from flac, then iconv them and after all import it back. Will look like this: 1. metaflac --export-tags-to=~/some_file.tags --no-utf8-convert track.flac 2. iconv -f cp-1251 -t utf-8 ~/some_file.tags > ~/some_file_fixed.tags 3. metaflac --remove-all-tags track.flac 4. metaflac --import-tags-from=~/some_file_fixed.tags --no-utf8-convert track.flac HTH -- best regards, Aleksey V.
