See this file: "Jail Break (UK) (1986) [a1].dsk" At adress $12d you display $E2 $88 $9A which is not correct, $00 $00 $00 is the correct value You can download it at: https://www.romnation.net/srv/roms/3908/amstrad/Jail-Break-UK-1986-a1.html

(I'm using HexEditor_0.9.5.19_x86.zip with the latest Notepad++ on Windows 10)

0x12d : E2 88 9A

confirmed. should be 00 00 00

But if u copy the string data in the normal npp editor, from 0x100 to 0x12f, "Track-Info  Nе Ѕ ¬ √"

Then the string can be encoded to give same bytes as HexEditor displays.

I think the displayed data of normal npp is wrong in the first place.

KnIfER commented 4 years ago

Disable Preference->MISC->Auto detect encoding, and re-open the file. the file will be 'decoded' as an ascii text file.

I think everything is correct this time.

'binary mode' for text editor！

The Binary mode ternimates all 'incorrect data' issues. Maybe someday I'll make another 'hex mode', as described on the forum.
