Manage your music with ID3 tag editors

11-19-2008 09:00 AM
The Linux desktop comes with a variety of multimedia players, such as Xine, MPlayer, and Amarok. Yet all digital media players are only as good as the files they have to work with, and preparing those files requires the best tag editor you can find. I checked out half a dozen of the more popular and stable graphical ID3 tag editors available for Linux. I found that going from no tags to great tags requires keeping more than one of these editors on hand.

id3_get_version - Get version of an ID3 tag

SYNOPSIS
int id3_get_version (string $filename) DESCRIPTION
id3_get_version(3) retrieves the version(s) of the ID3 tag(s) in the MP3 file. If a file contains an ID3 v1.1 tag, it always contains a 1.0 tag, as version 1.1 is just an extension of 1.0. PARAMETERS
o $filename - The path to the MP3 file Instead of a filename you may also pass a valid stream resource RETURN VALUES
Returns the version number of the ID3 tag of the file. As a tag can contain ID3 v1.x and v2.x tags, the return value of this function should be bitwise compared with the predefined constants ID3_V1_0, ID3_V1_1 and ID3_V2. EXAMPLES
Example #1 id3_get_version(3) example <?php $version = id3_get_version( "path/to/example.mp3" ); if ($version & ID3_V1_0) { echo "Contains a 1.x tag "; } if ($version & ID3_V1_1) { echo "Contains a 1.1 tag "; } if ($version & ID3_V2) { echo "Contains a 2.x tag "; } ?> The above example will output something similar to: Contains a 1.x tag Contains a 1.1 tag SEE ALSO
