[SCRAPING / METADATA] Audio Files : ID3 Tags not written to Audio Files #238

Open Ombrelin opened 3 years ago

Ombrelin commented 3 years ago

I use youtube-dl material to download music on my server and then stream it through my PLEX server. Currently, the produced audio files have no ID3 metadata, so plex struggles when picking up the files. It would be nice to be able to populate these metadata directly via youtube-dl material.

They should have ID3 actually -- unless they are subscription audio files, which is a gap in the feature. Wouldn't be too hard to add, but just to clarify: are these subscription or non-subscription audio files that have the ID3 missing?

Ombrelin commented 3 years ago

These are non-subscription files, downloaded using the video URL. I opened them using a software called tag scanner which is intended to view and edit ID3 tags and I get no data : image

First of all, sorry for getting back to you so late.
Can you recreate this issue on the latest nightly version of YTDL-M?
(on that note, make sure to switch the yt-dl fork used by YTDL-M to yt-dlp, which improves speed and reliability greatly)

Thank you for your time and trying to make this app a better one, we appreciate this greatly!

The late reply is due to me going through old and forgotten about issues, trying to restructure issue labeling and general repo improvements, so I also take the time to get back to any old issues and try to verify whether we still need to fix something or whether we forgot to mark some issues as resolved.

Hello ! No pronlem, thank you for your answer, I'll do as you say and document my problem a bit more. Thank you for your time investment in FOSS !

I'll be honest, I did do some tests and I can't reproduce this issue. I'll leave it up because it could be platform specific -- I'm running on Windows 11 btw.

If we can get more data on where this is happening that would be great!
