MP3 Tags Editing – Developer’s Guide

Fellow developers! Get ready to tweak the metadata properties of your MP3 files using code. Let’s get some experience with the libraries that are designed to make this task quite simple. Next, this article will guide you through using these APIs to edit the metadata of MP3 files programmatically. Choose the one that aligns with your requirements the best!

Let’s explore the coding world to start editing metadata tags of MP3 files. Let’s begin!

Edit MP3 Tags using C#

If you’re looking to edit MP3 tags as a .NET developer, simply follow these steps:

  1. Configure the library within your application.
  2. Use the below code snippet to view and then edit MP3 tags accordingly:
// Read MP3 file ID3V1 tags
using (Metadata metadata = new Metadata(Constants.MP3WithID3V1))
{
var root = metadata.GetRootPackage<MP3RootPackage>();
if (root.ID3V1 != null)
{
Console.WriteLine(root.ID3V1.Album);
Console.WriteLine(root.ID3V1.Artist);
Console.WriteLine(root.ID3V1.Title);
Console.WriteLine(root.ID3V1.Version);
Console.WriteLine(root.ID3V1.Comment);
}
}

Edit MP3 Tags using Java

You can create your own MP3 tags viewing and editing application using Java. Here is a small example that can be used:

  1. Download and configure the metadata library for Java within your application.
  2. Utilize the provided source code to view and then edit the MP3 Tags:
// Read MP3 file ID3V1 tags
try (Metadata metadata = new Metadata("path/audio-ID3V1.mp3")) {
MP3RootPackage root = metadata.getRootPackageGeneric();
if (root.getID3V1() != null) {
System.out.println(root.getID3V1().getAlbum());
System.out.println(root.getID3V1().getArtist());
System.out.println(root.getID3V1().getTitle());
System.out.println(root.getID3V1().getVersion());
System.out.println(root.getID3V1().getComment());
// ...
}
}
