'Ignore metadata of FLAC files' is not working

I have two flac files that have 3 metadata blocks at the beginning. First and the last blocks are identical but the second block which is VORBIS_COMMENT is of different size between the two files and AllDup does not recognize them as duplicates with the 'Ignore metadata of FLAC files' checked. I have verified that the files are otherwise identical by manually removing VORBIS_COMMENT block from both files and running 'fc /b'.
The comparison criteria are set to 'File size' + 'File content (byte by byte 100%)' + 'Ignore metadata of FLAC files'. Everything else is off.

The above was double checked with the current latest version.

thank you very much for the feedback!

We could reproduce and fix the problem.

Please send me a private message to get a new update to test the flac fix.
