Are the genre entries that stay capital non-standard? As there is no setting that converts ID3 V2 genre from what is entered. Also does the same thing happen in the GUI?

The easiest way would be to list the tag details in a script, parse the line for the tag value into a variable and pass this to the update line in the script. The tag details are always shown even if empty so it shouldn't need complex error checking.

We can certainly help with the script if required, all we would need is the OS used.

This is an issue with the CLI under a Russian version of OS X where the preferences plist is not read correctly using the OS commands.
Using the preferences file id3edcmd.prefs in the same location as the CLI or in ~/Library/Preferences will fix the issue until it is fixed in the next release.

The CLI pref should work as you have described it, is it possible you are using an older version of the CLI? Does the result of running ide3dcmd -ver show 1.21.25?

Also, the encoding should not cause any issues as the license in in ASCII.

The preference file path is ~/Library/Preferences/com.pas.id3editor.plist. If this does not contain the license i.e. a permissions issue is preventing the main application from updating the preferences, please contact support so that they can send you a preference file with the license already entered.

If you were only using the CLI and have not yet run the main application (GUI), you need to run the main application once just to enter the license.

You can use sudo to give temporary root privileges (this assumes you have admin rights) or you can place the CLI in ~/bin instead.

If you reference the CLI directly you can put it anywhere for example, if it is in your documents folder you would just run it with ~/Documents/id3edcmd 'an.mp3'.

Are you using the CLI (id3edcmd) on a different machine or as a different user? As it would only show the warning if it could not find the preferences file or did not have premission to read it.

One option is to place the preferences file in the same folder as the CLI. If this does not help, could you contact support so that we can help you further.

We will of course look into this as there should not be any issues as ID3 Editor does not interpert the time entered it only checks it is in a valid format. The UTC time entered is the time used and any conversions or adjustments are by the player only.

From the podcasts you have downloaded that show the correct time, would it be possible to list the entry shown in ID3 Editor and the result shown in iTunes so that we can also test that here.

There are no technical issue that we are aware of. The date you enter is not altered by ID3 Editor so it must be the way iTunes is interpreting it.

What date are you using? Is it UTC (Coordinated Universal Time)? Also which time zone etc. are you in?

I am very sorry for the incorrect information, the ISO8859-1 fix was not part of 1.20.20 but part of our Audio Book creator.

We have added the fix to an update which you are more than welcome to use. Please contact support for a link to the update.
