Re: [LAU] ID3/Ogg metadata copying?

Hey Ken, I've done something similar. The python libraries I ended up using were: ogg.vorbis pyid3lib In one of my scripts, I have some code that might be a useful starting point, though taken out of context it will surely need some fixing up... def tag_all(self): """ Tag all mp3 files in mp3dir with info from the corresponding ogg. """ artist, title = self.artist, self.title mp3files = sorted(glob.glob(self.mp3dir + '/*mp3')) oggfiles = sorted(glob.glob(self.oggdir + '/*ogg')) self.log("Tagging %d files." % len(oggfiles)) assert len(oggfiles) == len(mp3files) files = zip(oggfiles, mp3files) for i, t in enumerate(files): oggpath, mp3path = t self.comment_to_id3(i, len(files), oggpath, mp3path) def comment_to_id3(self, n, ntracks, oggpath, mp3path): # XXX note we could also have just used lame command line options # to insert the tag during encoding. Oh well, this works. oggfile = ogg.vorbis.VorbisFile(oggpath) comment = oggfile.comment().as_dict() mp3tag = pyid3lib.tag(mp3path) def _get(key, default=''): # Helper for getting single ascii strings out of weird vorbis # comments, and cleaning up fallback values that may be # filenames. value = comment.get(key) if value == None: value = [default.replace('_', ' ')] value = value[0].encode('ascii', 'ignore') return value #mp3tag.genre = _get('GENRE') #id3v2 has given up on genre, it was dumb mp3tag.artist = _get('ARTIST', self.artist) mp3tag.album = _get('ALBUM', self.title) default_name = os.path.basename(oggpath)[:-4] mp3tag.title = _get('TITLE', default_name) mp3tag.date = _get('DATE') tracknumber = _get('TRACKNUMBER', '%d/%d' % (n + 1, ntracks)) tracknumber = [int(i) for i in tracknumber.split('/')] mp3tag.track = tuple(tracknumber) mp3tag.update() -- Paul Winkler http://www.slinkp.com
