    I recently ripped some albums to flac image and cue using EAC.
    when I open the flac files in mp3tag I find the full album rip file has been tagged as if it were track 2 of the album like this example of Grace Jones - Nightclubbing album, track 2 of the album is pull up to the bumper.

    Title: Pull up to the Bumper (Should be Grace Jones - Nightclubbing)
    Artist: Grace Jones
    Album: Nightclubbing
    Year: 1981
    Track: 02 (should be left empty)

    I have no idea why EAC would tag the file with that info as if it were track 2 of the album, and I dont see the setting in EAC to change this to put artist - album in the title field .... anyone have any suggestions ? I have 200 more CD's to rip I dont relish the idea of going back over them all in mp3tag to fix this issue manually

    These are the flac encoder command line arguments in EAC:

    -6 -V -T "ARTIST=%artist%" -T "TITLE=%title%" -T "ALBUM=%albumtitle%" -T "DATE=%year%" -T "TRACKNUMBER=%tracknr%" -T "GENRE=%genre%" -T "COMMENT=%comment%" -T "BAND=%albuminterpret%" -T "ALBUMARTIST=%albuminterpret%" -T "COMPOSER=%composer%" %haslyrics%--tag-from-file=LYRICS="%lyricsfile%"%haslyrics% -T "DISCNUMBER=%cdnumber%" -T "TOTALDISCS=%totalcds%" -T "TOTALTRACKS=%numtracks%" %hascover%--picture="%coverfile%"%hascover% %source% -o %dest%

    In the title field in the EAC GUI I had Grace Jones - Nightclubbing, in those command line arguments I have "TITLE=%title%" so why is it using the track 2 title in that field instead ? Surely when performing an image rip the indivdual track information should only be for the cue sheet ?
