+[id3v2frames] Bug fix for id3demux issue
+
+Fix the issue that id3 tags utf16 charaters cannot be extreacted in id3demux
+when I tried to get the id3v2 tag such as TIT2, TALB etc. it will return extrac
+failed.
+
+Checked in id3v2frame.c, When parse the UTF-16 streams, it used g_convert() to
+convert the buffer from UTF-16 to UTF-8, however it will return err that this
+conversion is not supported which cause the extraction failed with these UTF-16
+characters.
+
+In the patch, use g_utf16_to_utf8() instead of g_convert, which can convert the
+character format successfully.
