[Alexander Kurpiers]

Always read the full mailing list archive... turns out to be a known
issue in WT4.7... So my problem is solved.

In my case it was RTTY instead of MIXED. Easy to fix on recent XP:
Just open Properties in Windows Explorer, go to Summery tab and change
the Title part. So no need even to install an MP3 tag editor, can be
done on XP directly.

I guess if I change the title, it will not work on WT4.7 anymore, right?
