Finding an MP4 item by field name

TagLib::MP4::File.open("file.m4a") do |mp4|
  item_list_map = mp4.tag.item_list_map
  title = item_list_map["\xC2\xA9nam"].to_string_list
  puts title.first
end

Add new cover art to a tag

image_data = File.open('cover_art.jpeg', 'rb') { |f| f.read }
cover_art = TagLib::MP4::CoverArt.new(TagLib::MP4::CoverArt::JPEG, image_data)
item = TagLib::MP4::Item.from_cover_art_list([cover_art])
mp4.tag.item_list_map.insert('covr', item)
# => nil
mp4.save
# => true

Extract cover art from a tag and save it to disk

cover_art_list = mp4.tag.item_list_map['covr'].to_cover_art_list
cover_art = cover_art_list.first
cover_art.format
# => 13
cover_art.format == TagLib::MP4::CoverArt::JPEG
# => true
File.open('cover_art.jpeg', 'wb') do |file|
  file.write(cover_art.data)
end
# => 3108
