Artist, Album, Artist Album not found from ID3v2 from WAV files

Hi,

I've just installed 1.1.12 Beta 6 (a few days ago Beta 5) (Foobar2000 for the first time) and noticed that it supports ID3 from WAV files like Tag & Rename and Serato Scratch Live, but

Foobar2000 does not show the content sometimes in the columns Artist, Album and Album Artist (Artist Album) like Serato or Tag & Rename - shows "?" or "? - ?" instead.

Screen Shot compare between Tag & Rename and Foobar2000 can be found here.

“sometimes” means when exactly? From files tagged by which application? Which type of tags does said other application write? etc.

I've enclosed a screen shot in the Uploads forum.

Tagged with Tag & Rename 3.5.7 or Serato Scratch Live 2.4.1 (Artist, Album only - Artist Album not supported).

Release Title ("Album") is stored in TALB (I store the discogs.com release id in this column for various reasons).

Release Artist ("Album Artist" vs "Artist / album") is stored in TPE2 which is always "Various" in this example. I don't understand why Foobar2000 adds the album name to it ... however.
