Hello again Michael, I've been ripping/encoding in Linux for a long time and I never had this kind of problem. I transfer my mp3's to Windows and vice-vesa and they all look fine (character-wise). I know what you are talking (I have lots of songs which Spanish special characters etc). I think you may be having problems with your LANG setting. Please try doing it all over (rip..encode... on Linux) BUT with "en_US" as the value for your LANG environment variable. Try it and see if it works. You can change it on /etc/sysconfig/i18n (then reboot the machine otherwise set it manually on current session). HTH, Jorge
