fb2k 1.4.1 beta1: missing data display on MP3/AAC radio streams

Updated today over portable 1.4 install (which was working fine) on Windows 7 32-bit.  Immediately noticed this problem:

Most playing radio streams are suddenly missing some or all of the following in both the Properties/General window and in the Status Bar display:  codec, sample rate, channels and occasionally bitrate as well, replaced by just "?".   Here is the code I am using for the Status Bar display:

[%album artist% - ]['['%album%[ CD%discnumber%][ #%tracknumber%]']' ]%title%[ '//' %track artist%]  | %codec% | %bitrate% kbps | %samplerate% Hz | $info(bitspersample) b | %channels% | %playback_time%[ / %length%]

Painfully obvious on all MP3/AAC streams, but for some reason does NOT affect OPUS or FLAC streams.  Also does NOT affect audio files of any codec.   Change back to original 1.4 install and problem disappears.  Ideas?

Hi Peter:  this problem persists with 1.4.1 beta2 installed over portable 1.4 final, but this time ONLY with MP3 codec stations;  AAC has been fixed.  See screenshots of same MP3 stream in 1.4 vs. 1.4.1 beta2:
