           Summary: gst-plug mad gets id3v2 text tags in wrong encoding
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: 0.8.2
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gst-plugins
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net

1.run Rhythmbox with gstreamer backend
2.load mp3s which are tagged in a locale-depending encoding
3.these tags get wrong display (All in ISO-8859-1 symbols)

When a text tags of id3 is marked as "ISO-8859-1", it desn't really mean
ISO-8859-1, but "locale-depending encoding". So a locale-to-utf8 conversion is
needed.

Id3v1 tags gets converted correctly in gst/tags/gstid3tag.c, but id3v2 are not.
They just get a "ISO8859-1-to-utf8" conversion (by libid3tag), so that won't
work correctly in non-ASCII locales.
