Hi James,

unfortunately it doesn't seem fixed to me. I tried the following with
2.4.3-4:
   1. youtube-dl -x -f 'bestaudio' 'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ui_odI
      vVIBE'
   2. Use soundconverter to convert it to Ogg Vorbis
   3. vorbisgain Flux\ Pavilion\ -\ Hold\ Me\ Close-ui_odIvVIBE.ogg (Add
      replay gain tags)
   4. ogginfo Flux\ Pavilion\ -\ Hold\ Me\ Close-ui_odIvVIBE.ogg | grep
      REPLAY (Confirm that the file contains replay gain tags)
   5. Use easytag to add Title tag "abcd" and save the file
   6. ogginfo Flux\ Pavilion\ -\ Hold\ Me\ Close-ui_odIvVIBE.ogg | grep
      REPLAY (Won't output anything, replay gain tags got lost)

At least oggz-validate didn't complain about a broken Ogg file. Neither
before, nor after editing it with easytag.

Cheers - Bruno
