Module: TagLib

Defined in:

docs/taglib/base.rb

Overview

This is the top-level module of taglib-ruby.

Where to find what:

• Reading/writing basic tag and audio properties without having to know the tagging format: FileRef
• Reading properties of MPEG files: MPEG::File
• Reading/writing ID3v2 tags: MPEG::File and MPEG::File#id3v2_tag
• Reading/writing Ogg Vorbis tags: Ogg::Vorbis::File.

String Encodings

Sometimes, it is necessary to specify which encoding should be used to store strings in tags. For this, the following constants are defined:

• TagLib::String::Latin1
• TagLib::String::UTF16
• TagLib::String::UTF16BE
• TagLib::String::UTF8
• TagLib::String::UTF16LE

For ID3v2 frames, you can also set a default text encoding globally using the ID3v2::FrameFactory.
