mp3::tag::file

MP3::Tag::File(3pm)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				       MP3::Tag::File(3pm)

NAME

       MP3::Tag::File - Module for reading / writing files

SYNOPSIS

	 my $mp3 = MP3::Tag->new($filename);

	 ($title, $artist, $no, $album, $year) = $mp3->parse_filename();

       see MP3::Tag

DESCRIPTION

       MP3::Tag::File is designed to be called from the MP3::Tag module.

       It offers possibilities to read/write data from files via read(), write(), truncate(), seek(), tell(), open(), close(); one can find the
       filename via the filename() method.

       parse_filename()
	     ($title, $artist, $no, $album, $year) = $mp3->parse_filename($what, $filename);

	   parse_filename() tries to extract information about artist, title, track number, album and year from the filename.  (For backward
	   compatibility it may be also called by deprecated name read_filename().)

	   This is likely to fail for a lot of filenames, especially the album will be often wrongly guessed, as the name of the parent directory
	   is taken as album name.

	   $what and $filename are optional. $what maybe title, track, artist, album or year. If $what is defined parse_filename() will return
	   only this element.

	   If $filename is defined this filename will be used and not the real filename which was set by MP3::Tag with "MP3::Tag->new($filename)".
	   Otherwise the actual filename is used (subject to configuration variable "decode_encoding_filename").

	   Following formats will be hopefully recognized:

	   - album name/artist name - song name.mp3

	   - album_name/artist_name-song_name.mp3

	   - album.name/artist.name_song.name.mp3

	   - album name/(artist name) song name.mp3

	   - album name/01. artist name - song name.mp3

	   - album name/artist name - 01 - song.name.mp3

	   If artist or title end in "(NUMBER)" with 4-digit NUMBER, it is considered the year.

       title()
	    $title = $mp3->title($filename);

	   Returns the title, guessed from the filename. See also parse_filename().  (For backward compatibility, can be called by deprecated name
	   song().)

	   $filename is optional and will be used instead of the real filename if defined.

       artist()
	    $artist = $mp3->artist($filename);

	   Returns the artist name, guessed from the filename. See also parse_filename()

	   $filename is optional and will be used instead of the real filename if defined.

       track()
	    $track = $mp3->track($filename);

	   Returns the track number, guessed from the filename. See also parse_filename()

	   $filename is optional and will be used instead of the real filename if defined.

       year()
	    $year = $mp3->year($filename);

	   Returns the year, guessed from the filename. See also parse_filename()

	   $filename is optional and will be used instead of the real filename if defined.

       album()
	    $album = $mp3->album($filename);

	   Returns the album name, guessed from the filename. See also parse_filename() The album name is guessed from the parent directory, so it
	   is very likely to fail.

	   $filename is optional and will be used instead of the real filename if defined.

       comment()
	    $comment = $mp3->comment($filename);   # Always undef

       genre()
	    $genre = $mp3->genre($filename);	   # Always undef
