Forum: VirtualDJ Plugins

Topic: Database -> ID3 Tags - Page: 1

This part of topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information

Ok, this is NOT a VDJ plug-in, but I decided to post here since this is the only place I might get some help.

After browsing around these forums I decided to build a small application that will read the info of VirtualDj Database, and it will write the info back to the ID3 tags of the files, as it has been requested by many users.

My application is 90% ready, but I have a small issue that I need some help:

The application is written in VB.NET
When I read the XML file, the "strings" I get back are always in ANSII format. That means that my application (for the moment) does not work properly with international charsets.

I tried every way I could imagine and every code sample I found, but I could not succeed to convert this string in Unicode (which is the default way VB.NET handles strings)

If someone can help me with that I would be really grateful....

Thanks!

when this works you will go down in the annals of vdj history... lol

if it will copy the bpm info from vdj to the id3 tag for bpm (and if it will work with both mpg2 video and mp4 video tags) I will start the drive to get you donations so you can upgrade to a PRO user, then put you in the VDJ Hall OF Fame!

I might also suggest you have VDJ pay you a small stipend to build it into VDJ and include it in the next update!

Ok, I bypassed my initial problem by writing my own XML-Parser...

Now the app is working! :D For the moment it processes only mp3 files, but other filetypes will come soon...

Right now I just have to do some beta testing... :P

Edit: And YES, it does write BPM's ;)

WMA Support added....
 
Posted Thu 10 Sep 09 @ 3:45 am
Ogg Vorbis support added

Edit: No BPM support though since OGG Vorbis does not support it... Unless someone wants me to copy this info to another supported field...

Flac support added. (Does even VDJ play .flac files? )

Edit: No BPM support though since FLAC does not support it... Unless someone wants me to copy this info to another supported field...

APE support added.

For now I'll stop adding other filetypes support.

MP4 format support will come, but it needs a lot of work... Same rule goes for MPEG files!

Now I need someone to tell me how to publish a beta here... (AFAIK links are not allowed by non-registered users)

************** Débogage JIT **************
Pour activer le débogage juste-à-temps (JIT), le fichier de configuration pour cette
application ou cet ordinateur (machine.config) doit avoir la valeur
jitDebugging définie dans la section system.windows.forms.
L'application doit également être compilée avec le débogage
activé.

Par exemple :

<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

Lorsque le débogage juste-à-temps est activé, les exceptions non gérées
seront envoyées au débogueur JIT inscrit sur l'ordinateur
plutôt que d'être gérées par cette boîte de dialogue.
