Mp3Tags extension

I'm in trouble whith the extension : rating bar
All Extensions From AppyBuilder Community [FREE]
-taping the bar it is not possible to select zero star
-when i try to make it display half stars it doesn't works

is someone know a well orking extention or is able to make one ?

Rating is not standardized in ID3 standard. so each program has its own scale.
previously I tried to define formulas to translate rate to value to store (and reverse) but it doesn't works for all.
so in this version (6) i created a new block:
image
this one returns name of the last program which wrote a rating in the file (for exemple"Windows Media Player 9 Ser¿es")

when you change rating from this extension, it will be " AI Mp3Tags extension."

so with this you are able to use the good scale according to your files

Thank you so much for your work. It's first that i used without compiler errors. But there is a little "but": it doesn't run if i try to play a mp3 stream. Fortunately without errors also in this case but without retrive any data from the stream. I think it's for the nature of the get system that you had used in your software. So, the question is: there is a way to get ID3 TAG data from a streaming mp3 flow?
Thank yoy very much for your attention.

effectively my extension probably cannot get data from streaming: it reads informations in mp3 file and i have no idea from how streaming works...so i'm not able to extract data from streaming...

When i tried to get album art for list of mp3 files, we are getting same image for all the mp3 files.
Can you please resolve it?

The only way i found to make my extension works it to save the album art in a temp file.
so if you seach several album art all of them will be saved in the same file. you hafe to save each image as soon as you gave it.

Can you add the album cover replacement as well?

Here you will find version 8.
with it i succed to add jpg or png file as cover in mp3 file.
I didn't try with other images format.

What could possibly be wrong here?

I know it's an old topic, just hoping for a helpful reply

You cannot save to the root of external storage (on AppInventor nb1965d)

but you are using Kodular, so you should ask on the Kodular community.

closing....

As the error message is trying to tell you, your app does not have write access to that file, see also Some basics on Android storage system
Use SAF for that

Copy the mp3 file first to one of the Shared folders (where you have WRITE access on Androjd 11+):

Note: You must request READ_MEDIA_AUDIO on Android 13+ and READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE on Android < 13.

Hello all
I added a bloc in this extention to get all tags (but AlbumArt) in a list.
this can be faster when we need several tags

Подскажите, почему расширение не понимает
кирилицу? (русский язык). Считывание работает, а внесение изменений нет

yes I have the same problem with accents in French... for the moment I don't know how to solve this problem...

Je suis parvenu à modifier l'extension pour qu'elle prenne en compte les accents (Version 10) je pense donc que ça fonctionne également pour le cyrillique (mais je n'ai pas le moyen de vérifier...)
