Bug when track# is 256 - appears on unsynchronized node

This is a simple one...

MM Version 2.3.1.845 on Windows XP

ANY Track that has a track number of 256 appears in the "Unsynchronized tags" node.

This one drove me nuts for days but I finally figured it out.

I had one track in unsynchromized tags list that just would not go away no matter what I did (clean tags, synch tags, even in desperation, manualy retype each tag).

I noticed that the track number was 256. Neing a programmer myself, that rang alarm bells, so I changed te track number - and yup, it went off the list. I changed another song to have track # 256 and tada! It shows up in the unsynchronized list.

Please fix!

This is because ID3v1 tag cannot have track# values >256. So any track with such number in MM library really isn't and cannot be properly synchronized with ID3v1.

But tracks over 256 work, it's just the number 256 itself (the collection is avtuially church hymns, over 300 of them, so I would like them all in the same album

Ok, I see, tracks>256 are propertly ignored but 256 accidentally isn't. This will be fixed in MM 2.5.

Thanks,
