Nice script.. Short and concise. Havn't tested it yet, but I like short and concise. :) One thing to note.. This appears to handle ID3v1 tags (which are stored at the beginning of the file). ID3v2 tags are stored at the end of the MP3 and are a little trickier to deal with but they can hold a lot more information. Check out this: http://nyphp.mirrors.phpclasses.org/browse/package/640.html Havn't used it, but it's the first one I came across doing this search: http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=php+id3v2 I'm sure you can find a ton of ID3 parsers for PHP. Just wanted to point out that there are at least two standards for ID3 tags and that you should probably check into both if you want full compatibility. -TG > -----Original Message----- > From: Ron Stiemer [mailto:ron@xxxxxxxxxx] > Sent: Tuesday, November 16, 2004 9:01 PM > To: php-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Cc: Ryan King > Subject: Re: mp3 parsing > > > Hi, > > maybe this wil help you...i made this some time ago... > > <?php > > function ShowID3( $mp3, $path ) > { > $file = $path . $mp3; > $value = fopen( $file, "r"); > $content = fread( $value, filesize ($file) ); > $tag = str_replace( "TAG","", strstr( $content, "TAG" ) ); > > $title = substr( $tag, 0, 30); > $band = substr( $tag, 30, 30 ); > $album = substr( $tag, 60, 30 ); > $year = substr( $tag, 90, 4 ); > $comment = substr( $tag, 94, 30 ); > //$genre = substr( $tag, 124, 1 ); > > echo, > "<b>Titel</b>: " . $title .
