Yes

IIRC, the LAME tag isn't actually an ID3 tag, but padded in some other
parts of the MP3 header which aren't used.

IIRC the problem was that eitherĀ bs1770gain but more likely python-
rgainĀ (which I had to use in the end, because of the problem with
bs1770gain) didn't set any replay gain tags (which *are* in fact ID3
tags) at all, when no ID3 was present at all.

These options basically made, that both a ID3v1 and ID3v2 "section" was
created (the later with UTF16 encoding), however with no tags.

Hmm... maybe I did in addition set one dummy tag like --tc=' ', and
removed that afterwards.

What exactly now? The stuff with the tags? I guess you can ignore that,
since I've just had it in place for, IIRC, python-rgain,...

What I would assume that ffmpeg does, is, that it simply drops or
somehow mangles up the LAMEtag,... or actually modifies the audio
stream so that it doesn't fit to the LAMEtag anymore.


Cheers,
