'null' tags returned for correctly tagged file... ? #35

Open ghost opened 6 years ago

Hi,

I'm trying to create a small app, using webpack, with an audio file located in my project folder. Here is my code:

import fs from 'fs'
import id3 from 'id3js'

tagReader: () => {
  id3('./../data/test.ogg', function(err, tags) {
    console.log('tags: ', tags)
  })
}

I checked the file which is correctly tagged (it is an .ogg), but for some reason I can't understand, all properties remains 'null'... Someone having the same issue, and/or able to give me some help? Thnak you in advance!

@soykje Does this work properly for MP3 Files or is this problem only occuring OGG Files?

Hi,

Thx for your answer. Yes it occurs only with ogg, not with mp3 files. Is this a know limitation, or is there any way to fix that?

@soykje Weird! However, I am going to fork it, and create an updated ID3 Metadata Parser for JavaScript within a few days. Most of the solutions on the web are totally outdated and don't use many of the today's best web practices. I was even unable to use this on Web now, also this and others have their fair share of bloatware, which hurts browsers a lot.
