Add .m4a audio file format support #13

Open bidouilles opened 9 years ago

bidouilles commented 9 years ago

It would be great to add .m4a audio file format support (audio/mp4).

Hi,

We need to do some tests and learn more about this format before support it.

I'd like to see this too, Itunes has become all too pervasive, m4a is everywhere..

Would there be any way to have the automatic conversion convert m4a to mp3 instead of having to implement support for an additional filetype?

lGuillaume124 commented 8 years ago

Could be included in #150

The getID3 lib does not support all the iTunes metadata tags (like album name, artist name and title). I remove this issue from milestone 1.1.0 because we cannot update getID3, due to huge performance regressions. Thomas started to work on our own metadata parser to remove this external dependency.

I don't know the status of the work on your own metadata parser, but this command :

avprobe -show_format -show_streams -of 'json' file.m4a > info-file.json

Will extract audio metadata in JSON. It use libav which is recommanded for sonerezh. I hope this help to add m4a support to Sonerezh.
