Hi,
It is possible and very common implementation error that ; is omitted and that only when there is ;; it show correctly as it is.
Also multi values in Mp3s are separated by Zero byte so application that reads value needs to replace it with Separator character eg. ;

This was posted in the Android forum, which is why I asked for confirmation.

In that case you might be running into this bug: https://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=18357

even I had tried double semicolon (;;), but nothing changed in Directory Opus, There is no semicolon in my file display.

Hi,
Can you please try with latest MM version from viewtopic.php?f=30&t=86639&sd=d

Also make sure that in MM options you have enabled ID3v2.4 and not ID3v2.3 tag support.
