No way to update the podcast URL in WFED after itunes-podcast plugin creates it #576

Open frsconsulting opened 2 years ago

frsconsulting commented 2 years ago

The itunes-podcast plugin has been a great help in creating the PCST and WFED frames demanded by iTunes, but the WFED frame created by itunes-podcast is always empty and cannot be updated. I see in id3/apple.py that both WFED and TGID are defined as text frames, but only TGID can be managed via eyeD3. It would be terrific if eyeD3 could manipulate WFED as easily as a TGID frame.

Hi @frsconsulting , thanks for the report. The WFED should not be empty, it should be the hard-coded "http://eyed3.nicfit.net/", a url= keyword is missing. Having said that, it's still not what you want.. and it should be settable. The itiunes-podcast plugin does the bare minimum to satisfy itunes, but it's very incomplete. Setting the URL, and supporting the other non-standard frames:

Most likely, a new CLI set of options would need to be added to support all of this as well. Keeping this open, but no time to work on it for the moment.
