Track and album names displayed with replacement character. How to resolve?
I am running Minimserver on my NAS and when I use BubbleUPnP to stream music from my NAS it displays the ganre, track, and album names with replacement characters, see attachment. The tracks' order is back to front.

When I stream from my Jriver Server that is running on a PC on my network, these replacement characters are not showing.

I would be grateful for advice on how to fix this. TIA

Could you copy one of these tracks to a temporary location and run the following from the command prompt:
Code:
fsutil file seteof <filename> 2048
certutil -encodehex <filename> hex.txt

The first line truncates the file so it can be handled by certutil and the second writes out exactly what's in your tags to a file called hex.txt e.g.

Code:

Could you include the contents of hex.txt in your reply (only the bits containing tags are necessary).

I'm assuming it's something like a carriage return. Did these tags come from HDTracks?

The order should be based on the tracknumber tag.

What ripping and tagging programs did you use to create the files on the NAS?

I tried this but I don't think it worked for me. It didn't create a hex.txt file. See below two commands I ran:

c:\temp>fsutil file seteof 01 - Koln, January 24, 1975, Part I.flac 2048
Usage: fsutil file setEOF <filename> <length>
Eg: fsutil file setEOF C:\testfile.txt 1000

c:\temp>certutil -encodehex 01 - Koln, January 24, 1975, Part I.flac hex.txt
Expected no more than 3 args, received 9
CertUtil: Too many arguments

Usage:
CertUtil [Options] -encodehex InFile OutFile [type]
Encode file in hexadecimal

Options:
-f -- Force overwrite
-Unicode -- Write redirected output in Unicode
-UnicodeText -- Write output file in Unicode
-gmt -- Display times as GMT
-seconds -- Display times with seconds and milliseconds
-v -- Verbose operation
-privatekey -- Display password and private key data
-pin PIN -- Smart Card PIN
-sid WELL_KNOWN_SID_TYPE -- Numeric SID
22 -- Local System
23 -- Local Service
24 -- Network Service

CertUtil -? -- Display a verb list (command list)
CertUtil -encodehex -? -- Display help text for the "encodehex" verb

I think it's because your path contains spaces (it doesn't know what is part of the path and what is a parameter to the command). To fix that you'll need to quote them:
Code:
fsutil file seteof "01 - Koln, January 24, 1975, Part I.flac" 2048
certutil -encodehex "01 - Koln, January 24, 1975, Part I.flac" hex.txt

RE: Track and album names displayed with replacement character. How to resolve?
To understand what has caused the problem, it would be helpful if you could post details of how these files on the NAS were created. If they were ripped from CDs, what ripping and tagging software did you use to do this?

RE: Track and album names displayed with replacement character. How to resolve?
It looks like those tags are NUL terminated for some reason which isn't to spec.

I found this thread that points to it being an issue with an old version of Jriver Media Center (~2013) which tallies with the version in your tags of 17.0.189 (fixed in 18.0.153).

I assume you see this problem with just your older files?

Yes, that is correct, as far as I can tell.

RE: Track and album names displayed with replacement character. How to resolve?
It looks like simply saving the tracks in Mp3tag might remove those NUL characters based on a similar problem discussed in the Mp3tag forums, but without a sample I don't know how to identify them.

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.
