Track and album names displayed with replacement character. How to resolve?

I tried to install Media Centre 17.0.189 from their archive but it wouldn't install into a sandbox.

I guess you could truncate the track with SOX and upload it?

Code:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\sox-14-4-2\sox.exe" "input.flac" "output.flac" trim 0 2

NOTE: Don't use the output from fsutil, use the original track as input to sox.


EDIT: I guess it might be worth trying to update in Jriver first, although I have no idea if you can perform this operation in bulk like you could with Mp3tag.

Many thanks for your help so far

I'll try to open and save in mp3tag and report back.

I haven't had jriver Mesia Cebtre v 17 installed for some years. I'm running v.23 currently.
