ID3lib


ZXeno from our forums has released v0.9 of his ID3lib development library for reading ID3 tags from MP3 files in C. This is very useful for developers coding some sort of media player or any other homebrew application with MP3 support. It has support for ID3v1 and ID3v2 (all versions should work). Here's what ZXeno said:

"The library should be able to read any ID3 version, but I'm not 100% sure about this. The album tag is not fully functional either. So you won't be able to use that yet, but I'm working on implementing it. It's pretty easy to understand, so any C developer (with some basic struct knowledge) should be able to use this. But just to make it simpler I made a basic example that reads the tag data from "test.mp3" which is included in the zip (it has no music data, so it won't play in a media/music player)"

ZXeno has given permission for anybody to use/edit this library as much as they want, although he would like to see some credit if it is used in an application. Developers, coders - what are you waiting for? The source code is included in the download.

The comment above should be: Note that The album tag is not fully functional either. Should be The album art tag is not fully functional either.
