I think it possibly has do with with GUIInfo changes and/or updates to FFMPEG. For some reason mp3 codec INFOlabel returns mp3float instead of just mp3. Perhaps he can fix but I really do not think his changes had anything to do with it based on me following the commits pushed to the xbmc GitHub page.
No, this will be concerning a totally seperate issue. I have an artist in my library, for whom only the MBID is shown in the "Artists" view. I know the files are tagged properly, so I'm placing my money on it being the length of the artist name being the problem.

The artist(s) in question being: "Deep Purple with the London Symphony Orchestra conducted by Paul Mann". I can't do anything about the length, as that's how it's listed on MusicBrainz. Since it's so long, i'm pretty sure it's maxing out the string length in Kodi, hence the reason why only the MBID is shown.
