No MusicBrainz tags get written to MP3 when converting from FLAC with embedded cue #187

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Set the encoder, metadata and batch settings according to the attached 
screen shots.
2. Open a .flac file with an embedded cue sheet and musicbrainz tags in batch 
mode (see attached text file containing the metaflac --list output for it). I 
have placed an open-source licensed (pretty large, sorry) example file at 
<http://static.boinkor.net/music/open-music.flac>.
3. Start the conversion (or rather, wait for the batch to finish).

How about the reproducibility (always, sometimes, rarely, ...)?

Always: This has happened for every FLAC with an embedded cue sheet so far, for 
me.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Expected:
XLD should copy each track's tags from the .flac to the resulting .mp3.

Actual result:
XLD writes the resulting MP3s without any musicbrainz tags (see attached 
open-music.01.mp3-tags.txt, generated by "mid3v2 -l 01\ The\ Magic\ Mushrooms\ 
-\ Open\ Source.mp3" on the first output file).

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Version 20130602 (143.2) on 10.8.4, build 12E55.

Please provide any additional information below.

The FLAC files were created by CUEripper, then had their cue sheets inserted 
via "metaflac --import-cuesheet-from=", and then added musicbrainz tags via 
flactag.

I have seen issue #59, but believe the circumstances surrounding it don't 
apply: Note that I've activated "Add tags to output files if possible" and 
"Preserve unknown metadata if possible".

For MUSICBRAINZ_ALBUM*** tags: should be transferred.

For MUSICBRAINZ_***[trackindex] tags: this seems to be a special way to 
describe per-track tags in a single image file, but is this style standard?

Thanks for the quick response! I'm not sure what the standard for track 
metadata in FLAC+cue files is, to be entirely honest - this is the format 
flactag (http://flactag.sourceforge.net/) uses, and I'm not sure if it adheres 
to a spec.

At any rate, the MUSICBRAINZ_ALBUM* tags are the ones that I care about really, 
and they don't get transferred. Are you able to reproduce this?
