Prevent id3v1 tags using converter?

Hello,

I have modified the default MP3 converter command line to specify:
Code: [Select]
-S --noreplaygain --id3v2-only -V 2 --vbr-new - %d


yet still when I convert say a FLAC file to MP3 I am seeing id3v1 tags in the file (according to Mp3tag).

Is there a way to tell foobar not to include the v1 tags?

Thanks!

Take out the "--id3v2-only" (you may as well switch back to the non-custom encoder) and change the "Preferred Tagging Scheme" option in the advanced preferences (i.e. change to "ID3v2" instead):
