Dear Monks,

I am using pp to package a command line program to edit mp3 tags. My program works fine before I package it, but I get this error after packaging as an exe:

Unknown encoding 'UTF-16' at MP3/Tag/ID3v2.pm line 2261

The when I use pp to create a .par file, utf8.pm is included. I don't believe there is a utf16.pm. Does anyone know what files I need to include to to handle UTF16.

Here is the code the produces the error:

@data{@tag_names} = MP3::Tag->new($file)->autoinfo();

Thank you greatly.
