GodFather Rejects Exact Audio Copy FLAC Tags

The FLAC tags generated by Exact Audio Copy are met with an error in GodFather, which won't touch the files until I strip their tags using another program, like Foobar2000 (which, incidentally, doesn't mind these tags at all).

The command line I'm feeding flac.exe is:
Code: [Select]
-T "artist=%a" -T "title=%t" -T "album=%g" -T "date=%y" -T "tracknumber=%n" -T "genre=%m" %s
.
I haven't found a good flac command-line reference (yet) so I don't know what's happening here.

I'll go through the EAC options but would appreciate help from someone more experienced in the matter.

Thanks,

Piyono

I think I found the problem:
In EAC's compression options under the External Compression tab there is a check box called "Add ID3 tag". Apparently ID3 is not officially supported by FLAC and therefore The GodFather – being very compliant, I suppose – doesn't support it, either.

I cleared this check box and The GodFather opened my FLAC files without any complaints.
